I think the thesis that DJ, Hammock and I would agree to is this: Historians tell us civilization began in the fertile crescent around 3400 BC...the first pyramid was compeleted 800 years later, and the most amazing of them only 900 yrs later. I find it beyond ludicrous that man would build something so difficult, complex, and arduous in such a short period of organized cohabitation. One could even say we peaked architecturally in our first millenium in relative terms. How could a society so new, with so few architectural feats build something that can't confidently be explained today? It just doesn't wash!
