Of course the old Egyptians, Babylonians, Stonehengers and every culture known or unknown were as INTELLIGENT as present day humankind, they induced, deduced, conceived, calculated and built complicated edifices without having the faintest INTELLECTUAL knowledge that this was "theoretical planning", "deductive thinking". Also, without the least knowledge of hypotenuses, legs and squares upon these, they applied all geometrical relationships on to their work.
