Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I certainly agree with you. There's a lot we don't know how they did it, and we don't have the knowledge and the technology necessarily today in order to do that. But we do know that these were brilliant people. Yeah. They were able, I mean, sometimes today when we look and we try to see, well, how would we produce this today?

We are stumped because we think according to our technological knowledge in a certain direction. They did not have this technology, so they had to really maybe think on a completely different level and come up with solutions that we don't have access to. So I tend to look at these things and just say they were really, really good. Also with the building of the pyramids.

actually how they did this and we can see also how they transported it up the nile um down denial and so uh the um the uh um a lot of this technology we know how they i mean practically we know how they did this it's very very impressive uh it's extremely impressive But we know how they did most of it.

In some of these temples, for example, these massive temples in Egypt that you see, parts of the ramparts on which they were able to pull these stones up still exist.
