A recent study suggests the sphinx and pyramids could be 800,000 years old.
I haven't seen that study. Link? I have seen compelling evidence of water erosion that would have taken decades or even centuries around the sphinx, which would place its construction at least 11,000 years ago or older.
What I've seen is that Sphinx points towards the constellation Leo every 26k years, so it could be 11k, 37k, 63k years old, etc. It would be kind blowing if it is 800k years old, but I imagine that limestone would not last that long.
Another interesting thing is that there seems to have been a 2nd sphinx that is entirely gone now.
There's a real arrogance in the West about this, based on early explorers' disbelief that people with brown skin could build something so incredible. Conspiracies about aliens and power plans are nonsense. They were enormous social projects, with prestige to be involved with, where workers freely exchanged their labour for food and beer on a seasonal basis, all validated by first-hand sources.
The mainstream theory lacks as much proof as the aliens theory. They definitely did not cut the blocks with copper and stone tools (mainstream theory), there was another technology that we don't know about. The unknown technology came from an unknown civilization that we don't know about. There are clues to support many theories.

Ah yes, the unknown civilizations that failed to leave behind any fossils, any structures, any chemical traces from manufacturing or mining, any disturbed geologic strata, any long-lived radioactive isotopes, any N15 enrichment from the Haber process, etc.

I'm not disputing what you wrote. I'd just like to learn more about this possibility and they arrived at 800,000 years. That would pre-date humans. Home sapiens have been around for... IIRC... about 50,000 years.
Sphinx points towards the constellation Leo every 26k years, so it could be 11k, 37k, 63k years old, etc.
But did people 11k years ago even think those stars looked like a lion? Constellations are made up, the ones who make them up die out and the next people see something different.

The Egyptians didn't leave behind any traces of tools that could have possibly built the pyramids. Judging by technology, the aliens theory is a more logical explanation than the copper chisel theory.

And this is part of the big mystery. If an advanced civilization existed in pre-history, why are there no relics? Maybe those cities were swept off the face of the earth by the great flood and now only exist in pieces at the bottom of the ocean. Maybe those civilizations sank under the sea, like the legend of Atlantis. It is a fascinating mystery.
Yet, it's obvious that the pyramids weren't build with copper and stone tools. Take the ramp theory for moving blocks, for example. The ramp would have had to be more massive than the pyramids themselves, yet there are no glyphs depicting these massive ramps.
So how were these blocks raised to the higher levels? One theory is that these blocks were made from a natural concrete. The "mud" was carried up in buckets, poured into form, and allow to harden into blocks separated by sheets of paparus, which turned to dust over time, leaving those impossibly thin cracks.
Another theory is that the ancients had the ability to levitate stone.
There are dozens, perhaps hundreds of marks on ancient building stones that could only have been made, according to modern technology, by circular, diamond blade saws. The cuts are so perfect, scientists can even calculate the diameter of the saw.

The chemical signs of civilization would not disappear even after millions of years. If aliens visited earth 100M years from now looking for signs of human civilization, they would clear traces of our tech - rocks and ice cores enriched in exotic daughter radionuclides, absurdly high N15:N14 ratios in soil/water, bizarre oxides from ore veins exposed to air in heavily disturbed strata, PFAs and PAHs everywhere, fossil-poor strata during the anthropocene extinction, etc. Even if the majority of the surface of the earth were remodeled volcanically and covered by ocean, the proof would be obvious.
If you legitimately think that this civilization blossomed, grew, and died out without leaving a single chemical trace, then I probably can't convince you of anything. Maybe they made natural concrete, sure. Concrete is really basic tech. However, concrete is chemically and structurally distinct from natural rock so I doubt it would go unnoticed. Diamond blade saws are also pretty basic, but diamonds are chemically sturdy and don't break down, so we would find clear signs of diamond dust in areas where they made and used the saws. As far as levitation goes - if you're willing to suspend logical reasoning that far, why not just say that god made the pyramids as a miracle?

The easy answer is that most sites haven't been dug up yet, or they are literally under water now. Sites 10k+ years old can easily be buried under 10s of feet of sediment. The obvious clues are there all over the world, and we've barely scratched the surface. Your choice if you choose to ignore new evidence.
Regarding levitation, it has been proven possible levitate things with sound and resonance. We have gone down a different branch of technology, and we can't fathom different types of technology that haven't been invented in our time.

Ya I question that also. I don't know how we use the same constellations, but they are depicted on Gobekli Tepe reliefs with images consistent to what we use. Maybe we inherited them.

The seafloor isn't as well explored as the surface, but people have certainly explored it chemically - e.g. fossil fuel drilling, nodule mining, seismic tracking, studies of marine sediment bacteria, surveys that track changes in the earth's mag field by looking at dipole moment of crystals in solidifed magma, etc. None of these surveys have ever turned up any signs of daughter radionuclides, inexplicable surface oxides, enrichment in odd compounds or isotopes, unnaturally disturbed strata, etc. If you have evidence of any of these things being found on the seafloor or anywhere else, feel free to post it.
Yes, you can levitate things with sound, but only small things. It doesn't scale well. The sound required to levitate a boulder would destroy the boulder (and kill or deafen anyone in the area) because you would need to increase the intensity of the sound exponentially to achieve a linear increase in lifting power. There would probably be regular pits and/or scorch marks on the boulder from exposure to intense compression waves. Similar phenomena can be obseved on the surfaces of objects that have passed through the atmosphere at high speed.
In this blanket topic, are we not all vane with burial monuments? I mean, as we die, and take up real estate, how much longer until we can no longer find a spot to bury someone?
As for the pyramids, they are from an ancient culture. The Romans built statues depicting the Emporer each term. They build huge buildings and even the colluseum, all with slave and paid labor. The aquaducts were an engineering marvel in Italy, and some are still standing today.
Slave labor was common in ancient times. You gre your empire by going out an conquering. The spoils were the captured/defeated.
You want evil and sick? Ancient Romans believed the purest form of a body was a pre pubescent boy. It was considered an honor to give your 10 or 11 year old son to a Senator as a gift. These Senators treated the boy as a sex toy and house slave. They had them wear eye makeup, and sometimes rogue.
The Egyptians were very savy and smart about many things. They lived by the Nile, for the "sud" that created great rich soil for plants. They had advanced math. They had several gods, and believed your body went to the gods. You put the dead body on a raft and floated it into the Medeterranian Sea, and when it disappeared over the horizon, they believed the body was taken to the gods.
As for pre historical humanoid, I live at a big gold vein, the stone is perfect for carving, soft. All the rocks on surface are rough by weathering and maybe tillage. But if I dig at one spot at the main fracture, about 2 feet down, I come across a lot of monkey looking sculptures, the thing is they appear to have ears, usually larger ears then us. Some are more monkey others borderline human. I buried all my loot as proper.
As an energy system, I use fire residuals, to make a myriad of devices, with uses of stone and/or sand. The real reason is low pressure, that you maybe able to build weather modification sites, atmospheric temples. It’s a long story…

You don't need copper. You would never use copper for cutting wood anyways. You can break boulders with wood shims and stone hammers.

I'm not disputing what you wrote. I'd just like to learn more about this possibility and they arrived at 800,000 years. That would pre-date humans. Home sapiens have been around for... IIRC... about 50,000 years.
Given Australia's first people arrived from Indonesia about 65,000 years ago I reckon Homo Sapiens have been around a bit longer than 50,000 years.

This is just plain nonsense. At the point of the Great Pyramid the Egyptians had thousands of years of experience in cutting stone for buildings and monuments. There's little first-hand evidence (still more than the evidence available for aliens though ;-)) of how the stones were cut but there are thousands of stones with saw marks, there's evidence of 300-pound copper drag saws and there's reconstruction evidence showing that we can create the exact same saw marks and internal marks in bore holes using technology that was available and in use in Egypt at the time.
