The pyramids were not built with slavery

how were they built?

By teams of people stacking enormous stones on top of one another. Fun fact, there's inscriptions by the teams.

"... labourers were recruited from farms, perhaps from a region much further down the Nile, near Luxor.

The labourers would have been enticed by the mix of high-quality food and the opportunity to work on such a prestigious project."

Aliens.

> Just because the Great Pyramids were built with slavery

They weren't build by aliens with alien technology? ;-)

SCNR because we are talking about Elon Musk with his space obsession.

Don't be absurd, we are not talking about anything comparable to slavery.

I am asking - show me the person who found the better way.
