'Sup Uboa/x/, I've been hearing a lot about Egypt lately and the impossibility of modern architecture being unable to recreate the pyramids. So how does /x/ think they were made?
The slaves weren't treated well, they didn't have labor unions. They worked, and worked, and worked, and worked some more.With thousands of slaves and enough whipping anything is possible.

>>187where did the slaves come from? egyptians were a pretty peaceful race. pyramids date back further than they were recorded as meeting other civilizations.also, seeing as how pyramid-shaped UFO's are common, the "journey to the next life" may have been intended to actually be a journey. I doubt extraterrestrials helped the Egyptians, but they may have encountered UFO's before or more often than other civilizations Last edited 10/01/15(Fri)23:09.

>>187There's evidence suggesting that the pyramids weren't built by slaves at all, but perfectly willing, well-cared-for, and well paid workers. It makes sense when you consider the Egyptians believed your burial site needed physical...
>>196wealth/magic charms/etc. that would become your wealth/protection in the underworld, of which the pharaoh would have mass quantities of due to becoming the death god when he died (or maybe simply by virtue of being the pharaoh).
>>197... The Pyramids had to be well built not only to withstand the elements, but to also repel thieves. A disgruntled workforce would know the exact layout of the pyramid, and would have robbed the dead pharaoh blind given half a chance. They would probably kill every slave who helped build it, since the pharaoh's security > a bunch of slaves, regardless of how much more work you could squeeze out of them before they died a natural death.
>>198Also, it's probably not likely that the workmanship of sickly, demoralized slaves would stand up to the test of time quite as well as the pyramids have.(sorry for the mass spam. I tried to put it all together, and the post stretched out really long)
