For sand the weight just has to be distributed over a larger area, no? And I don't think Egypt is loose sand everywhere, although I've never been. I think to accomplish what they did they probably had the wheel or something like it like logs for rolling things on.

It’s very easy to check if modern science thinks that ancient egypt, during the reign of Khufu, had the wheel. The field of Egyptology agrees - they didn’t. If your response is just going to be “well they MUST have had the wheel!”, congrats, you’re at step 0.5 of figuring out the official narrative is bullshit.

And no, you can’t just use “a lever” (made out of what?) on Saharan sand (yes, it’s all they have) to lift hundreds of tons without constructing a massive, modern foundation and mooring system (i.e. concrete).

I'm not saying the mainstream history is correct. I don't think they are good at dating things.

And no, you can’t just use “a lever” (made out of what?) on Saharan sand (yes, it’s all they have) to lift hundreds of tons without constructing a massive, modern foundation and mooring system (i.e. concrete).

I said the lever could be made out of stone columns bound together. The pivot can be made of stone too and if it sinks into the sand too much then put it on a wide base. Not exactly easy but that's the simplest way I can think of. Maybe they found a better way but I don't see any direct of evidence of sophisticated technology.

I skimmed through it, but didn't see any direct evidence like ancient illustrations or descriptions of such technology, just indirect evidence
