Nonsense. You severely underestimate the abilities of ancient civilizations. As others have pointed out, these were not primitive people, but were advanced in mathematics, astronomy, and construction, and had a civilization that lasted a very long time. But you are probably right about one thing; they had more tenacity than the average modern internet surfer.
