Ancient Europe = basically mud huts = no ancient aliens

Rest of the ancient world = ancient engineering marvels = ancient aliens

What's the issue?

Yea, people just apply racism to everything instead of thinking about it for a second.

Ah yes, the Parthenon, most famous of the mud huts.

2000 years after the pyramids. Racism could be a part of it, but it's really impressive what the Egyptians did with the technology at the time.
