Yeah but those tools change things a lot, can't imagine how much time it would take to assemble the wheel with buckets vs plugging a pump

yeah that's why cathedrals took decades if not over a century to make, a lot of people worked on something knowing they'd never see it finis

Because of that they had to use practical effects and actually build a full-scale bridge and then they just abandoned it there.

If they didn't run out of money or were interrupted by wars or plagues, these big construction jobs didn't take much longer than today.

5 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

Which is to say "like 20 years".

If a bridge like that would take about 17-18 years today, then they would take about 20.

I don't think Aliens could have built the Pyramids. They must have had help from humans. Maybe humans even taught them math and writing. 1/2

There is substantial archeological evidence for human presence in all of these sites. I don't think this would be a mere coincidence. 2/2
