Just a shower thought. Seeing how these structures took decades to build in their times, and that too entirely with manual labour, I was wondering how long these architectural marvels would take to be built in this post modern era with the help of our technological advancements.

Imagine the world has dedicated its focus and the entirety of its resources on building just one Pyramid as quickly as possible out of the same materials and in the same location as the original ones. The medium of construction has no constraints but the end result must be indistinguishable, structure and composition wise.

I would love to hear how the process would take place in addition.

    They actually don’t know, but mathematically in order for them to build it within the historical time constraints, it had to have been done one block per minute.

    Which some say is impossible with the technology they had, sparking conversation that there’s more to the history of the pyramids than we think.
