The attitude of specialists about the great pyramids simply astounds me. Everywhere they look they see only artefacts of religious beliefs. Most won't even give the Great Pyramid builders the benefit of having mathematics beyond the most primitive sorts. Planning and executing this job would have required vast knowledge of math and the abilities of their tools and men. Primityive bumpkins can't just go wander into the desert and start stacking up 480' piles of stone with perfect alignments and internal features. They had to have infrastructure to build these yet they see only temples and religious artefacts. The builders wrote of a "Great Saw Palace" yet modern scholars believe this was a place to butcher cattle! Without refrigeration they certainly didn't have central meat packing and they had to cut those millions of stones somewhere. The God Set was said to power this saw palace but I suppose this is assumed to mean the God guided the butcher's hand.
