We're no more intelligent than people who lived 10s of thousands of years ago, but because we have better technology we think we are.
The Nazca lines? Likely built a scale model and had some means of pacing it off, much like anyone would do today. Whether Nazca lines or the Uffington white horse or Stonehenge, etc.
Pyramids? I don't buy into those pictures in our schoolbooks of slaves dragging rocks across the ground. I'm not up on the latest theories, one many years ago was that you could tie a round, split wood form around a square block and then just roll the damn thing.
I just think of any problem solving issue I've ever been involved with, and the ideas that people come up with to solve them.
Stonehenge: Let's dig a shallow trench, and float the fucking things. No, you fucking idiot, that won't work - we need rollers. Rollers, are you fucked? You have to.....
