What is debatable is how the humans at that time came up with the necessary technology to create and build the pyramids. Building the great Pyramids not only took an enormous amount of human labor it also required sophisticated techniques of architecture, engineering, surveying and celestial knowledge.
The Pyramid is much more than just a bunch of cut blocks of stone stacked one after the other until they reached the top. It required sophisticated engineering and pre planning to accomplish what they were able to do.
Even with today's construction tools and knowledge it would be an immense project to recreate a Pyramid in the same location. Even without our current day aids, the Egyptians were able to create one of the seven wonders of the world. Its a given that it was built on the backs of thousands of laborers. What is questionable is who was the leader, engineer, architect, foreman, surveyor and astronomer that provided the necessary guidance to build it. |
Look at the earliest pyramids and progress one one by one to the last and it's all very clear how they progressed. Given your argument of superior knowledge they wouldn't of made so many bad ones and got progressively better as they learned by themselves how it should be done. As for knowledge of where stars were, look up into the night sky.
The names of the people you asked about are known, written on the walls of the pyramid interiors and often had their own impressive burial chamber. No where does it mention aliens.
The Egyptians weren't forced to do the work. They were sold a religious lie. The lie was that the leader was the one who would go first, because he was a God and this would ensure an afterlife for all the people of Egypt.
