I would say because there appears to be a vast network of a lost civilization that existed roughly around the equator and ended around 12,000 years ago during the end of the last ice age.
The main attribute to this civilization is that they lifted large stones, those of the pyramid 200 tons, in Mexico the largest is 400 tons. Modern construction cannot duplicate the liftings identical to this lost civilization. Some have come out to say their evidence of mainstream archaeology having a cover up. So from hearing them I believe the Giza pyramids were built by this lost civilization.

Its a nice speculation but the evidence presently points against a lost civilization of the magnitude you seem to be suggesting. The civs we know about leave massive archaeological footprints, 1000s of sites and literally millions of artifacts.....
The largest stone the AE moved was around 1,000 tons and the Khafre funeral temple was made up of 400 ton blocks. Modern lifting can easily move such weights - that meme of 'no lifting' comes from Sitchin a real fountain of misinformation. The heaviest stone moved by non-mechanical means was the Thunderstone of 1,500 tons by the Russians in 1770. Evidence points to the AE being the builder of the pyramid tombs.
claimed to be the largest stone ever moved by man
purportedly the largest stone ever moved by man

Hey thanks for the info, I realize that I'm subject to disinformation so I am always open to new facts. Gladly I have uncovered that Sitchin is all lies and admit that anyone just glancing at his material wouldn't have the first thought that he is a disinformation agent. Sorry what are you referring to by 'AE?' I am thinking 'ancient' something.
Where is the information that shows how it was accomplished? It is a great feat they moved the 1,250 ton stone,
but the ancients lifted the 400 ton stones in architecture. Lifting 400 ton stones and building from them would be much harder than moving a stone.
There is ample of evidence of the civilization I am talking about. It is correct to give this civilization the name of Atlantis because they did prefer to inhabit islands (all across the world). This civilization ended around 10,000 years ago from the flood with the except of the Minoans who survived until another cataclysm of a giant volcano. The most obvious thing about them is that they carved vast large amounts of stone sometimes depicting animals and hieroglyphic writing, and they made statements within their monuments that were correlations to the stars and celestial cycles. So this brings everybody to ancient aliens and to the question of 'if these individuals were so into the stars and talked about as gods in the bible, where did they come from?' Well there are monuments on mars...

Two scientists, Paul Weinzweig and Pauline Zalitzki, working off the coast of Cuba and using a robot submersible, have confirmed that a gigantic city exists at the bottom of the ocean. The site of the ancient city — that includes several sphinxes and at least four giant pyramids plus other structures.

i have wondered that too,,, also those baskets,,, always the baskets,,,,,
also, are they collecting or harvesting,,, would say harvesting,,, pine cones,,,, or pineal glands..
maybe the device is a dimensional syncrhonizer....

You cannot say 'not a single thing,' because the fact remains that those 400 ton stones were built into a structure and the people of the geographical locations swore that they did not build them, but in most cases were built by giants or gods before them. This is true for Ancient Mexico, South America, and also islands in the middle of the nowhere (Micronesia and Easter Island). There is evidence that the Giza pyramids were built before the Egyptians and also much separate evidence that the Sphinx was also built by these people. Nobody knows why Gobekli Tepe was buried over like the ancient Chinese pyramids or one in Mexico but everyone is completely astonished by it's discovery, unwilling to reveal it because it is most likely a star map. An ancient stone city off the coast of the caribbean, an ancient stone city on the ocean off the coast of Japan. Why shall one not acknowledge what is being discovered?

Here's a challenge for you pick one of the list you've put up PERSONALLY rresearch it, don't just accept what a fringe video, website or book tells you to believe, look at both sides and come back with the one you think is actual evidence of 'Atlantis'.
You didn't look to see if there was an update to that story - so what is the latest? Briefly no city
That image is pure fantasy.

It's not really fringe. The reason why we don't have video of ancient underwater civilizations is because there are not many scientists who are also divers, in fact of the coast of Japan when they admitted the legends passed down from verbal traditions consisted of an ancient peoples in contact with UFOs that had a 'castle' on the surface of the ocean, there were absolutely NO scientists who were divers.

Now if you are talking about a person collecting data, which is science, then you will see that the stories passed down through generations were factual because there is a darn carving of pyramids and rock under the ocean. The carving of stone steps is gigantic - which is evidence that there really was giants - as the bible tells. So this is all evidence, and when you put it together with Malta, Easter Island, Micronesia, Gobekli Tepe, Mexico and South America, I don't see how that could be fringe.
I don't know why people think I just look at one source, I am not a researcher but I certainly tie many sources together in order to come with a conclusion.
There is a conspiracy to archaeology just like there is to UFOs. There are many reasons why the word doesn't get out. As a said before an archaeologist who looks at a slab of the Sphinx will 100% for sure admit it was rain and weather erosion, and when they are told it is the Sphinx they will laugh and say 'good joke.'
So this is not an argument over my knowledge, the presented facts, or even your knowledge. This is an argument over the primitive ego.

Then why are you completely unaware of the basic facts? It is a discussion about evidence versus opinion and right now all you have is a lot of unfactual opinion...You seem to have forgotten that the man who came up with the theory about erosion of the Sphinx is a scientist and gain tenure after publishing his theory - please explain?

That is insanely wrong -"no scientists who were divers."
And, please, link us to this "admission" you claim.

Hey, I edited out your adjectives to try an brainwash those reading. Your funny little adjectives directed towards me are meaningless and show that it is true you are speaking from your ego as I suggested could be a possibility. That you can think of ways to ridicule people you don't believe means you are part of the mainstream scientific community, the same type of community that has rejected new ideas based on evidence which proved to be true much later in history. There are countless individuals coming out and countless cover ups all the time.
There is no tenure for telling the world the truth when the world does not want to accept the truth. Robert Schoch went to Yale and knows his research, but as I said the experiment has been done as will always be the same - any archaeologist looking at a wall of the Sphinx in a picture not knowing it is the Sphinx will say it is weather erosion.

The question is not whether there is erosion but how it occurred and when, everyone who has seen the data knows it's erosion - where is the conspiracy? Now wait you're saying a scientist came up with a new idea and wasn't 'destroyed' , got tenure, etc, but you also seem to think doing so is somehow dangerous. It isn't as long as you have actual evidence.
So lets see
You have now acknowledged that there are divers a plenty, that the main investigator at the off shore site was a diver himself.
'Ridicule'? Pointing out that what you believe is ridiculist is your fault not mine.
Have you noticed a certain amount of change in the scientific understanding of the world from 1813 to 2013? If all you believe is true there should be no advancement - but there is, please explain.
My original challenge remains
