This topic stemmed from TechnoHawk's post back in my other thread.
How was it possible to build the pyramids, if they were such giant blocks? If they used logs, how did they fit the blocks onto the logs in the first place? Did they have knowledge on how to build cranes, or what?

Aliens. Or possibly RBOB.

the blocks are easier to pull across the ground when you dampen the ground with water.

Innovation + pool of thousands of slaves = pyramids.

They used big stupid tractors, along with simple machines such as the power of lever arms, wheels, pulleys, and tons of manpower. Innovation + pool of thousands of slaves + aliens or possibly RBOB made the blocks easier to pull across the ground, especially when you dampen the ground with water.

That definitely deserves an exalt!
