If you take the currently accepted timeline for The Great Pyramid

It consists of 2.3 million blocks of limestone and granite, some weighing as much as 80 tonnes but most between 2 tons and 30 tons and was constructed over a 20-year period.

2,300,000 / (365.25 x 20 x 24) = 13 blocks per hour

So one at least 2 ton block was put into place every 5 minutes

Which also means one 2 ton block was quarried and shaped every 5 minutes

Which includes 144,000 casing stones, all highly polished and flat to an accuracy of 1/100th of an inch and weighing 15 tons.

The casing stones weighing as much as 20 tons were placed with an accuracy of 5/1000ths of an inch, and an intentional gap of about 2/100ths of an inch for mortar.

And I'm expected to believe they did this with wet wood and bronze chisels.

I just don't buy it.
