I found that sort of precision impressive

Pyramids are massive, I could believe a stat like that, We are all pretty lazy compared to people that didn't have technology to help them. but if you watched the video at the start of the thread with 1 old dude lifting and standing a 21,000 lb stone by himself with wood and sand, it's pretty easy to believe that 5,000 slaves could move and place 1 every 4 minutes, in teams of 14 salves, or workers, that's 357 teams, each placing a stone a day.
the first think a person did when they came into power back then was order the construction of their final resting place, so that it would be ready when they died.
