Abydos, interesting place. You should know, they have ancient 200 ton clear cut granite blocks there. I had the opportunity to see them in person. Well I'm not Hancock or Daeniken trying to feed you crazy stories, but yeah it's a bit incompatible with the notion of gravity and the way we think events did unfold. Keep your mind open that is all.

It's not that incompatible. I don't think we know for certain how those blocks were handled, but there are several very plausible ideas that have some supporting evidence.

Indeed! But that goes both ways. Stay open to the possibility that the explanation is something pretty mundane (if impressive).
