That person... you know... did anyone think to get a name?

There have been some hella smart people in our lifetime… Einstein… Hawking… but 5000 years ago, someone figured out how to manually move giant stones weighing 25 tons from 150 miles away to create Stonehenge, a feat we can't duplicate despite all our modern cleverness. We don’t know a name, but man she was smart.

    Ha!

    I think access to slave labour may help to accomplish such feats, although I don't know this for sure. Let me have a couple of slaves and I'll let you know in six months.

      But there are the logistics to be considered, even when there is lots of free manpower.
