Are we on about the slaves again? I thought it was pretty much accepted that the Egyptians did not use slaves to build the pyramids.

The question of who labored to build them, and why, has long been part of their fascination. Rooted firmly in the popular imagination is the idea that the pyramids were built by slaves serving a merciless pharaoh. This notion of a vast slave class in Egypt originated in Judeo-Christian tradition and has been popularized by Hollywood productions like Cecil B. De Mille’s The Ten Commandments, in which a captive people labor in the scorching sun beneath the whips of pharaoh’s overseers. But graffiti from inside the Giza monuments themselves have long suggested something very different.


... They were not slaves.

It is intellectually fallacious when people try to say
"OMG! A culture who had great things like pyramids + myths about gods who live in the sky = aliens"
Its complete hogwash, as many cultures throughout the world have had myths and such about god living in the sky and so forth, but it wasnt due to aliens, it was do to the fact as it was seen as the place man could never go (at that time) the sky held a mysterious aire with people especially looking into the night sky in a time before astronomy, so it was only natural for them to dub it as the abode of the gods.

So yea, this is bullcrap
