I like ancient aliens

I'm an archaeologist and don't think aliens built the pyramids or anything like that but it's a great show.

If it wasn't aliens giving people all this knowledge and skills then our prehistoric ancestors were 1000x more advanced than we currently believe. I don't watch it for the aliens but for the fascinating capabilities of ancient humans. That show opens you up to all kinds of possibilities and interpretations. It gets a lot of criticism but it does make people think. It helps that I'm interested in aliens too.

    Pyramids are created by Egyptians, nothing more, nothing less. Its just that they put on so much time and hard work for that compared to our architectures today. Intelligence is the same, but now its readily available on computers thats why we rely on it and got lazy to do it manually.

      • That was debunked. It was built by skilled Egyptians, who lived near the pyramids in a large housing quarters with all their necessities provided for. Recently archaeologists unearthed this place and found all the personalised pottery, walkways, individual houses with their rooms, etc. The workforce was well taken care of and paid handsomely. Remember the building was holy to them so they wouldn't let some scruffy slave foreigner do it for them. Kinda like how gothic cathedrals are the work of highly skilled stone masons who had to apprentice for 7 years to be called a master mason.

        Also they found an actual flatpacked wooden boat (preserved!) near the Nile used to transport the massive stone blocks from the quarry. They built a replica and it successfully carried a massive stone block down the river. They know that the workers were divided into teams for various tasks because they found a work log from one of the "managers" of the boat team.

    I agree. The lost knowledge and history is fascinating. Not the alien stuff, which I don't believe.

      Pyramids were built by ancient illegal aliens cause they worked cheap.

        Yes. Native Americans were often caught swimming to Egypt for a better life.

  • It’s not that hard to built a stupid pyramid out of rocks. If the ancient Egyptians had any talent they would have built a hadron collider.

    Attributing ancient human ingenuity to aliens does a disservice to both ancient and modern humans. That said, how can you possibly deny that guy's hair?

    It is a great show....I love it...In my line of work I speak fluently with aliens. Some of which are quite old. I just find it very relaxing speaking in our native language...Spanish just a little bit of humorous antidote....showoff
