Did aliens build the Pyramids?
I know this is a common question but the mystery around the makings of these magnificent buildings is very interesting.
Why has no giant tool been found that helped to create the pyramids?
Why has no documents or ancient ‘blueprints’been found detailing the structure of the buildings?
Why did the egyptians never draw one picture of a pyramid?
Why did the egyptians create drawings of alien beings in their art?
For those who are new to the world.I meant aliens from other planets.
The idea that anyone apart from the Ancient Egyptians built any of their structures is too idiotic to consider.
There is an evolution in building techniques from the earliest “mastaba” tombs to stepped pyramids, then to smooth-sided pyramids. The tools and techniques used in cutting stones and dressing them are known to archaeologists – exactly the same techniques were used in other parts of the ancient middle East.
Why would you need a “giant tool” to create a large building? The Polynesians erected huge stone statues on Easter Island using palm logs, small stone hand axes and locally produced ropes.
“The Egyptians never drew one picture of a pyramid” – this level of ignorance is unbelievable – they drew pyramids under construction and gave each one an individual name, using the hieroglyph of a pyramid as a determinative at the end. There are inscriptions detailing the work, the names of each “gang” of workers, the name of the architects, the amount of oil and food needed to supply the workers and the time spent in construction. There are also pictures showing large stones being transported by boat down the Nile from quarry to pyramid site.
Blueprints would be on papyrus, which would not survive unless sealed in a tomb, which was never considered necessary. There are no existing blueprints for Roman aquaducts, roads or forts – in your scheme of things this must mean that they were also built by visiting green aliens.
In over 40 years of studying Egyptian art in museums and photographic records, I have never found a single drawing of an “alien”, except of course in the sense of “foreign aliens” working and living in Egypt. I am able to read hieroglyphic inscriptions and there is certainly no reference anywhere to alien beings from the sky arriving in spaceships, despite the garbage written by some of the more insane modern writers.
Edit: The alleged helicopter and UFO referred to in another answer are in fact a palimpsest – a case of one text being inscribed over another (a very common practice). This, plus erosion of the stone, has led to confusion in the shape of the hieroglyphs, which are really nothing more than standard glyphs. See http://www.catchpenny.org/abydos.html
for a detailed description of the real text – which I can guarantee is nothing to do with helicopters or UFOs.
