The biggest pyramids were built in the so-called "Old Kingdom' period of Ancient Egypt, after which it persisted for two millennia.
Never underestimate the value of patience. And it's easy to achieve 2D symmetry with just chalk and string. Add a measuring stick for 3D symmetry.
There were no super-advanced civilisations. The archeological and geological records are clear.
In the video the faces from granite could not bin made with out cnc, ni on perfect symmetry
But todays diamond tools would have worn out very fast.
This whole view is warped due to the arrogance of modern people. Fundamentally we are the same as we have been for millenia making use of the tools available. Knowledge was not as widely dispersed but minds were working significantly better than often implied.Me or you will ever know if there was super-advanced civilisations or not.
Up until the outbreak of this pandemic, there were some master masons doing work that fine on stone that hard. They're part of a team building a castle from scratch with no modern anything apart from the safety precautions of using metal reinforcing pieces on the joints of wooden scaffolding and sometimes hard hats. People have been working on it for a couple of decades now. Doing work that fine on stone that hard with only pre-modern hand tools is slow work but it's absolutely possible for someone with enough skill at the craft. They have produced many videos, some of which include some details about how the measuring and planning was done.

The thing that's unique about that project is the scale and the variety of the work. Not the fineness of the work. You hugely underestimate how well a skilled artisan can work. Hugely, massively, enormously underestimate it. That's understandable given how little such work is required nowadays, but it is very wrong.
You don't even need metal tools to work granite, let alone CNC kit with diamond tools. You can do it with stone tools. People have, in modern times. It takes a lot more skill and a lot more time, but it can be done. Societies in the stone age had people who were specialists in working stone, even specialists in different aspects of working stone, because working stone was particularly important in the stone age.

For you to say that, well you be cutting these materials every day or have done in the past.
I've taken up the carpet in one of my rooms and intend to replace it with carpet tiles. The floor is solid concrete. There are a few small areas of shallow damage to the floor and I'd like to fill them in before laying the carpet tiles.
A couple are small indentations where it appears something has been scraped over the surface. These are ~6mm deep at the deepest part and about 5cm by 2cm.
There are two much larger very shallow pits that were quite sandy and gravelly. It's what I'd expect if those parts of the concrete didn't have enough cement in them, but I know very little about concrete so that's just a vague guess. Anyway, these pits are only ~2mm deep at the deepest parts, but they're each about 50cm by 25cm.
I'd like a more level surface to glue the carpet tiles to, so what's the easiest/best way to get it?
I am tempted to just use some general purpose polyfilla I have in a cupboard, but I suspect that's probably not ideal
I had a look for concrete floor repair guides online, but the ones I saw are for much more extensive damage.

Could you explain please? I'm struggling to relate this reply to my postAh ok, nothing to do with you taking the info you feel is relevant thought out your life and forming the views you have now? i.e stuck in your ways.
they are more advanced than we ever give them credit for.Never underestimate the value of patience. And it's easy to achieve 2D symmetry with just chalk and string. Add a measuring stick for 3D symmetry.
