Ancient Civilizations - Unlikely Parallels in Pyramids

Ancient Egyptians and Mayans built pyramids without ever meeting each other. Two civilizations, 7,500 miles apart, developed the exact same architectural style, mathematical systems, and hieroglyphic writing. They even shared similar religious beliefs about death and afterlife. Both used pyramids as tombs for rulers, aligned buildings with stars, and created complex calendar systems. Scientists still can't explain how these parallels emerged with zero contact between continents. Next time someone says ancient people weren't advanced, remind them that they pulled off one of history's greatest coincidences.
