    Pyramids = basic engineering shape for a sturdy structure. Wide base, tapered top. A lot of early monumental structures were constructed with that basic concept in mind.

      its not the basic shape thats impressive, its the truly gigantic pieces that have tighter tolerances than a tesla.

      I don’t think people have ever been blown away from the shape of them.

      Edit: and it’s actually really silly to think about someone who would be… “Woah! How are those things triangles???” Like what?
