lol...king tut's organ tissues had elements of coc aine and marijuanna, so maybe it was the kings who thought such dumass thoughts and then forced everybody to go along with the dumbass idea of building giant heavy monuments for completely pie in the sky speculative reasons.

Now, I haven't considered that one. Hmmmm.

Maybe. If we could get tissue samples of commoners and if those samples indicated they also read the same results (or close to it even), then I would say you're onto something.

Remember, they did like Beer, so...

Maybe they were more like us than we know.

They were taught too them. There is every reason and my full understanding that it was a gift of knowledge from the Anunnaki or some higher intelligent source. We are a smart species, but to get where they were with mathematics and geometry, astrology and astronomy, architecture and building material manipulation it would have to had been taught to them, cut and dry. They were aware of many things, some even believe they had electric or battery operated lights, this is why you see no char or smoke residue on the inner parts of the pyramids walls or ceilings.
