if the pyramids are so easy to make with our modern technology then whay hasn't anyone built one even a small replica. Answer because they are damn hard to build even with the use of our modern technology.
Incorrect.
The reason we don't build pyramids today is because the cost / area of usable spaces is atrocious.
As for our current capabilities...we have buildings that could house multiple pyramids, in terms of volume.
For example, the Everett Factory (Boeing) can house just over 5 Great Pyramids of Giza...

Your right cost is a factor also no need to build one can't think of anyone worth spending billions on to bury.

Cheops found the Sphinx and G.P. already built, but in bad shape .So he built the causeway and refurbished the whole complex, and had his face carved on the Sphinx, he rededicated the whole site to Isis. All future Pyramids couldn't be built to the same high standards. He put on new cantilevered door which led into the passageway. But couldn't get any further . Then clad it all in polished limestone. The complex has been under salt water at some time, with a tide mark two thirds of the way up. and the plateau has signs of marine creatures , that haven't completely fossilised.
Its been there a real long time. The above is scorned by conventional Egyptologists , but the salt crust on the inside, was analysed and confirmed as marine salt deposit. Twenty years to build the G.P. and the Causeway, I really don't think so. Modern cathedrals have taken a hundred years.

Oh I'm sorry to upset your paradigm ,but if you read all the facts associated with it all. Theirs enough there to suggest that things are not what they seem. Two pyramids built on separate sides of the Atlantic, both sharing the same size of base? www.ancient-wisdom.co.uk... nicotine and coc aine found in mummies negroid heads carved on the American side. Extensive copper mining in lake Superior . We haven't got a clue, unless a bit of lateral thinking is involved.

When all the evidence is taken into consideration . It looks on probability their was a trans Atlantic connection up to the end of the Bronze age. Re all the copper mined from Lake Superior.

Stone alignments, to the Solstice. Virtually identical both sides of the Atlantic.

Something serious happened, a major discontinuity, Probably the eruption of Thera .

That's what happens to theories that never had a leg to stand on in the first place.

This doesn't sound like the theory has no legs. www.grahamhancock.com... If I know the angle of the Solstice, then I know where I am on the earths latitude line.
Solon and Plato were contemporise, they would have to be if Plato talked to him DUH!

A hundred and fifty actually , I was just testing to see if you ignored the real evidence and nit picked the other. Which you did.

My guess is the first people who landed here, like we will on mars soon, were the architects, the primitive slaves were the builders.
