Actually the evidence shows that one of the primary wages was beer. Not a joke.
Quite a bit of archeological documentation on Volunteers, and wages.
Like Robert Schoch's and other Geologist's work on the Sphinx being much older than previously thought. Erosion patterns relative to rainfall is a literal science, and that science does not align with the dogma of the generally proposed date period for construction. It takes time for older outdated scientific dogmas to catch up with advances in science. People build their entire careers around a hypothesis which turn out to be inaccurate.
Looking into Cocaine/ Coca Alkaloids being found in Egyptian mummies, and buried wealthy Egyptians from the Dynastic Periods is also such a wrinkle, and real pain in the ass for older Egyptologists. It was long held as Dogma that transatlantic ontact, and commerce was impossible during the Dynastic Periods. Mass Spectrometry has advanced enough to detect the Coca Alkaloids in these ancient bodies, which we know could have only come from Peru. The evidence is irrefutable for transatlantic shipping. Thus, the Theories must shift to meet the evidence. So too must the Slave Model for having build the pyramids shift as our science has advanced.
Correct on the beer. This was started by phoenicians. It was called liquid bread at the time.
It gave just enough calories to function and they had enough at night that it would inhibit escape attempts.
it was in mid-high school history. the teacher actually taught history, americanism, respect for the founders, and how important the declaration of independence and the constitution were not only for America, but a framework that the rest of the world could follow, if they got their act together.
basic gist of giving them beer, they would drink too much and lose the initiative to leave much like anyone you see at a gathering that has had too much and thus sleep it off, 'ready for the next day' of hard labor.
They also had red hair. Same thing happened to Egypt as is happening to Europe now. Just like with the pyramids, after the population of Europe is replaced, people will be picking the marble cladding off buildings and building slums with salvaged materials.
The cycles of civilization, and progressive degeneration of the founding stock.
Climate change had a major impact as well. With an Asteroid Impact(s) sparking the end of the Younger Dryas Period, which led to desertification. That desert used to be grasslands with trees.
Middle East used to be grasslands and trees as well. The deforestation practices of the shipbuilding Phoenicians, which they shared aspects of with the Dynastic Egyptians, led to destruction of the soil's moisture retention capability. The fungal and microbial biosphere which existed symbiotically were necessary to supporting greater diversity in the type and numbers of grazing animals. With no tree cover, the Sun baked the soil, and changed everything. As an example, Lebanon used to be covered with Cedars, now very few remain.
Forests and be replanted, but someone has to do it, and it takes leadership.
New civilizations can be built, but someone has to do it, and it takes leadership.

Fascinating on the inhibition of escape attempts. Certainly a trap for much of the working classes, and many people in general, even today.
Also a potent neurotoxin, and major depleter of magnesium via metabolism.
Do you have a source in the escape inhibition aspect? I'd like to understand that element more.
