What is the difference between something made by retroactively white-coded people and something made by aliens?

Edit: I want so badly to post the picture of the white pharaoh. Why can't I?
Lemmy had issues with people attacking the site by posting CSAM so hexbear doesn't show externally hosted images to prevent that.

White people making innovations in Rome: Geniuses
Brown people make pretty much the same innovations hundreds of years later: Aliens
The meso American version of this is so fascinating because they built so many civilization supporting infrastructures and then seemingly forgot or just stopped how to using them leading to a collapse several times over.
I want to believe that religion or politics prevented them from enduring to the present day as they were at their height and that we'll meet the same fate for the same reasons.
Some, yes, but many of the things that Europeans go "whoa how could they have possibly done that" (waterworks, roads, pyramids) when the Romans or people adjacent to the Romans were able to do it 1000+ years earlier. Not trying to do the whole "primitive" bit, more just saying that a lot of the shit white people say was "impossible" from brown people of their era was achieved by people they considered white thousands of years earlier. Logically speaking, there is no reason that indigenous people wouldn't have been able to figure out many of the things white people credit to aliens.
Oh hey fun fact they're actually work gang that assembled so you would have one group I believe it's called the loyal followers and another one called the hard workers anyway so but these pyramid assemblies happened when the flooding happened when the Nile flooded and on were worked on slowly and voluntarily slaves only came in later
