Magic is a trick, the only one citing magic is you.
Acquiring "Power over Nature’ is not magic.
So I don’t keep repeating the same post response–read my post about the same magic claim you make in the recent post of mine above.

Okay, so by “levitation” you’re just talking about sonic vibration by them blowing horns or something to create sound to lift rocks or something? I’m maybe a little unclear on what the abilities of the builders of the Pyramids are besides engineering. Do you think they were just really good at coordinating the operation and used engineering to build the things and just think they used engineering principles, but not levers?

So you’re trusting what some Greek dude said about Egypt?
If Egyptian magic was so powerful, where is it today? Oh, that’s right, the Greeks conquered them, then the Romans, and then the Arabs… Nice magic they had there.

What you are thinking, theorizing and proposing could be the case.
What is sad, disgusting and an affront to anyone who loves history is how Arabs destroyed the mad- ntr (hieroglyphs) that was carved into the casing stones of “The Great Pyramid at Giza”
The excerpt below is from the link I posted in a previous post reply above~
Herodotus, visiting in the fifth century BC, reported that inscriptions of strange characters were to be found on the pyramid’s casing stones. In AD 1179 the Arab historian Abd el Latif recorded that these inscriptions were so numerous that they could have filled “more than ten thousand written pages.” William of Baldensal, a European visitor of the early fourteenth century, tells how the stones were covered with strange symbols arranged in careful rows.
Sadly, in 1356, following an earthquake that leveled Cairo, the Arabs robbed the pyramid of its beautiful casing of stones to rebuild mosques and fortresses in the city. As the stones were cut into smaller pieces and reshaped, all traces of the ancient inscriptions were removed from them. A great library of ageless wisdom was forever lost.
We will never know what revealing or even definitive information was written on those casing stones. The information could have very well revealed how “The Great Pyramid at Giza” and other pyramids were built.

Yeah, I’m going to trust Herodotus.
Egyptian super science was so powerful that everyone and their brother in the Middle East conquered them over and over.

Don’t forget his story about the pharaoh1 who descended into Hades and played dice with Demeter!
1. Rhampsinitus, of whom we have no record save in the Histories. Almost as if he didn’t exist.
Edit: It’s funny that he’s being quoted as evidence that the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids with “power over nature”—because he’s got some opinions on how they were built, and though they’re quite clearly exaggerated they still don’t involve any sort of supernatural abilities.

Here is an interesting video about the influence of mythical African-Kemetic religion on Greece, Judaism and Christianity.

Sorry but I actually have an academic education in the area of Greco-Roman religion and your Afro-Kemetic stuff doesn’t pass my sniff test. Black Athena was full of shit too. 
I also dislike Egypt, personally, since it attempted to kill me dead.

Herodotus documented thousands of people and events.

Yes, 10 amusing and egregious examples.
You do realize Herodotus, while credited with inventing the idea of history, is not actually considered a reliable historian by any historians of the last several hundred years?

If you look at Herodotus as a guy who picked up a bunch of stories from all kinds of people, and is letting you know about the things he heard, Herodotus is really fun to read. To the degree that Thucydides is a far more careful and reliable historian, Herodotus is more entertaining. As the first historian per-se, ostensibly trying to piece together the Persian War, he couldn’t resist throwing in the great/weird/fun/interesting stories he heard, and while he was generally pretty good about telling the reader that he was delivering secondhand information, he wasn’t always the best at gauging the reliability of that information.

Oh, I have a hardcover of Herodotus right here. He’s good for amusing stories. I wouldn’t base my ideas of Egyptian super science on his writings though.
Of course, as @khepra has avoided answering, if the Egyptians were the holders of super science and magic, it sure doesn’t explain why they get conquered over and over again to the point of their culture being wiped out and their people replaced by the Arabs.

Herodotus did document all kinds of things, but he’s kind of like that fun drunk uncle at parties telling you stories he heard from other people. Entertaining, sometimes has a really interesting thing that’s actually true, and maybe you love the guy, but you’re better off not really believing his tale about the girl who died from going to the tanning parlor too many times.

If you read the excerpt you see Herodotus is not the only one who cited the mdw-ntr inscriptions on the casing stones. The mdw -ntr is also cited by others as well.
Second, Africa-Kemet/Anu ruled the world for over 10,000 years, covering a pre-dynastic period and over thirty dynasties.
How long did the Greeks or Romans rule the world in comparison?
How long has America been a world power in comparison?

Uh, no they didn’t.
They may have ruled Egypt (for some values of “they” and “Egypt”) for a few thousand but that’s about it.
You seem to think “the entirety of a part of north Africa” is “the world.” China would disagree (as would Rome).
Could their lasers not repel Alexander the Great or was his magic too great for them? I’ve seen that show!
I think this television documentary presents an interesting case for how Greece conquered Egypt.

When you use the word “may” it means you are not sure of your comment and are speaking from emotion and not facts.

I’m not sure on what planet this is even true.
Please don’t tell me what I mean when I use words. You really have no idea. How about actually responding to what I write instead?
Egypt (regardless of what mythical name you give it) never ruled “the world.”
You haven’t provided any facts for your wild assertions of Egyptian super technology and/or magic or their world domination and yet you go on and on and on and on… 599 posts in and counting on this thread…
Egyptian religion is a bunch of made up stories by a culture that the Romans, then the Christians, and later the Arabs supplanted in the end with no relevance to our world today. Egyptians don’t even believe these stories anymore.

The Great Pyramid at Giza was built by Africans. It is beyond the academic comprehension of humans living today–or any civilization who conquered Kemet after the downfall of the 10,000 plus pre-dynastic and dynastic periods.
By the way both the Greeks and Romans imitated and worshipped many of the mythical African-Kemtic gods. You may want to check that history.

No, it isn’t. Simply saying this over and over doesn’t really make it true.
Sort of like Clinton being the candidate of the people.
I’m sticking to “The Romans used their laser powers heat rays provided by Archimedes to conquer Egyptian super science and UFOs.”
