Recreated? By who? Who's trying to recreate the pyramids? No one is recreating them, but people have learned how it was done.
"We have discovered through archaeological digs, the tools used to build these structures, and how these tools were utilized to accomplish this task. The tools used by the Egyptians were very simple and consisted primarily of two devices. The first being a right angle rod marked along its length with increments denoting cubits. A hole was drilled on one end, where a plumb line would have attached, and the second tool was an unmarked rod with a hole at one end.
The idea behind this was first for one worker to look through the hole of the unmarked rod, and sight both the plumb line (which was held by a second worker) and a specified star. Then according to the foundation ceremonies, the worker would then face towards Ursa Major, and search for the polar star (which back then was Thuban located in the constellation of Draco). Once this star was located the worker then marked a line running from north to south coinciding with the notched increments of the other rod, pretty easy huh. This simple method was utilized to layout the foundations of every structure that adorns the landscape of Egypt."
And that's not even getting into the math portion of the article itself, just the device they used to layout the foundation.
