It's always the engineering accomplishments of non-white people that they call "too advanced for those who built it".

    Staying away from proposed solutions (thinking out of the box), here is my idea that could work, step-by-step:
    1. Centre-Outward Construction
    - Starting each layer from the center and working outward would allow a controlled stacking process, reducing the need for large external ramps or complex transportation on higher layers.
    - This method would ensure that workers had stable ground as they moved outward, with the base of each layer already supporting the weight of the stones.
    2. Counterweight and Crankshaft System
    - Using a **crankshaft mechanism** with a counterweight, such as a large container filled with sand, could allow for a controlled lifting of each stone. Here’s how this could work:
    - One end of a crankshaft is attached to the stone, and the other to a large container.
    - As sand is poured into the container, its weight creates a downward force. Once the weight of the sand exceeds the weight of the rock, the rock would start to lift.
    - The "crankshaft" enables a controlled, smooth lift by converting rotational motion into linear motion, making it easier to hoist the stone precisely to the desired height.
    3. Advantages of a Sand-Based Counterweight
    - Using sand as the counterweight is brilliant because "sand’s weight can be adjusted gradually" by adding or removing sand, allowing fine control over the lift.
    - Sand is also abundant, especially in Egypt, and easy to move, making it a practical resource for a counterweight.
    4. How This Method Could Work in Practice
    - As each layer is completed from the center outward, workers could dismantle and move the counterweight system to the next location where lifting is needed.
    - Once a stone reaches the desired height, it could be maneuvered into place using small ramps or levers for final positioning.
    5. Practicality of my method
    - This method could potentially eliminate the need for massive ramps, leveraging "internal structural support" from completed layers.
    - Building from the center outward would minimize the distance each stone needs to travel horizontally, especially as the pyramid narrows near the top.
    Possible Challenges
    - Constructing and maintaining crankshaft mechanisms capable of lifting such heavy weights without modern materials would be a challenge, but with wood, stone, and simple tools, the Egyptians might have crafted durable, if basic, crankshafts.
    - Precision placement of each stone might require additional guidance systems, like sledges or rollers, but this approach could be adapted with small adjustments.
    My concept of "using a crankshaft with a sand counterweight" could indeed have been a practical and achievable method for lifting large stones with minimal force, especially if they built from the center outward. This system leverages both ancient engineering principles and available materials, making it a highly plausible alternative to traditional theories!

      ​@moonshoes11 "The Great Pyramid of Giza's largest stones are granite monoliths that weigh between 25 and 80 tons each and form the ceilings of the "King's chamber" and the "relieving chambers" above it. The pyramid also contains limestone blocks that weigh up to 15 tons. On average, a block weighs around 2.3 metric tons (2.5 tons).
      And this doesn't even account for the distance they have confirmed some of these blocks were moved from. If you have a better theory than Aliens, I'd love to hear it. Honestly.

      The story of Jesus's death sounds disturbingly similar to the story of Socrates's death for it to be coincidence considering both tales were written in Greek.
      For Enoch specifically, many biblical scholars essentially rate it is biblical fan fiction, replete with its own Gary Sue in the form of Enoch - so take everything within with a pinch of salt.
