    Yes, surely it’s because of their skin color and not because it was so long ago that people underestimate the amount of technology and labor they had access to.

    Don’t they say the same things about Stonehenge?

      Sort of, there’s a long train of things here. The Stonehenge theories primarily come from “Chariots of the Gods?” by Erich von Däniken who stole a lot of the Stonehenge stuff from Robert Charroux who thought that white people were actually descended from aliens and brought technology and civilization to the rest of the world.
