Claim: Ancient Egyptians Could Not Work Granite Without High-Tech Diamond Tools

dr. David Miano just uploaded a video all about this topic. I have not watched it yet, so cannot comment on how well it connects with the topic at hand. Note the long list of reference links in the video description section, enough to keep us busy for a while.
I watched about a third of this ...and then, to my dismay, went back to it and found it has been removed from YouTube due to a copyright violation, probably a complaint from the people he is debunking. :(

I see.. I hope it comes back. But like you say, some of these grifters he is pointing at perhaps complaint at YT. This is how we roll in todays world: complain and it is taken away.

The doctrine of Fair Use has repeatedly been successful in fighting such knee-jerk strikes, and this seems to be a case where it would apply.

Yup, apparently an attempt at censorship via DMCA, but he's not sweating that it will eventually go back up due to fair use.

Article:
For those of you who are wondering where my latest video, "Dudes Think They Can Prove Atlantis by Measuring a Vase," one of the guys whose views are critiqued in the video is upset with me that I used an image that he created and which appear in the article he wrote. So he has filed a copyright claim against me. My use of his image falls under "fair use" in US copyright law, so I am disputing his claim. Unfortunately, the video will be down until the dispute is resolved.

It seems to have been taken down due to a copyright claim by the people that wrote the "Abstractions Set in Granite" paper.
Apparently, peer review was not in their plans when they released the article.
 
Some detail, dispute over an image.. I guess it is that one with all the circles.
I think David did provoke it a bit by choosing this title. Red cloth and bull etc.. :D
 
Good, I can finish watching it. I notice that of the gushing gee-whiz accolades and down to earth disagreements that UnchartedX chose to post on screen (about 55:50) the very first is from Ross Coulthart.

Russ is into Atlantis too?! I'll have to watch it time permitting.
