There’s no “history we normally teach” which doesn’t by now include the info that many, possibly most, megalithic structures in Europe and elsewhere are older than the Giza pyramids.

The Great Pyramid at Giza was built about 2550 BC, the other two large ones at Giza were constructed by the next two generations of the same dynasty. Sweden’s megaliths shown above are part of an older tradition.

The earliest megalithic structures on Malta were built 7000 years ago. The Gobekli Tepe site in Turkey is around 13000 years old. Megalithic sites may be from a single worldwide culture with roots in the last ice age.
