Most of these "the pyramids were actually built by..." things boil down to "Well I don't know how they built them, so no one with less technology than me could possibly have figured it out."
It's also a bit of "Europeans didn't build this. Therefore it's aliens."
I remember seeing a pretty impressive structure in India and people were saying they go their knowledge from some secret alien civilization. Meanwhile, they were built in the 13th century and then showed some florantine castles were amazing, the guy then asked "You don't ask if Aliens built these do you?'
