I think they just used sheer manpower and made it, but us humans nowadays dont want to believe that "primitive" people are able to make something like the Pyramids and we cant so we invent stupid reason like "aliens" or "lost secrets" crap.
If you ignore the engineering required to fit rooms in them and not have them collapse.And let us also not forget that the pyramids, while impressive in size, are big piles of rocks. Dump any rocks in a heap and they'll tend to form a slope-sided shape with the point at the top. There's nothing particularly impressive about the design or engineering of the things; they've just persisted this long because they're in a minimum-energy configuration.

That's a fair enough observation, but my basic point was that many proponents of outlandish construction theories--especially the aliens/Atlantis/other magic schools of thought--seriously overestimate the difficulty in engineering such structures. They may be hard, but not beyond the means of dedicated people with levers and a lot of time on their hands.
Elephants. Think about it. They've very strong. Domesticated elephants could have been used to pull blocks.
I can pretty easily take apart my office chair but I have no idea what the factory machinery looked like which made it.
