The article itself mentions that modern understanding is that the quarry was only 200-300 metres from the great pyramid


The Granite that this article speaks about came from the Aswan stone quarry which was over 900km from Giza. Even with the distance of the limestone close, my point remains that cutting and placing a block every 4 minutes around the clock is impractical without sufficient technology. Technology which the Egyptians did not possess.


Must have been aliens then. I wish they’d come back.
