Image transcription: 4 panel comic by War and Peas: 1. two pharaohs from ancient egypt are standing in front of a pyramid whose construction is nearing completion. One says to the other, "You've outdone yourself this time, Babuthep." 2. he continues, "You'll be remembered for this throughout history!" 3. "It's a testament to human ingenuity." 4. time jump to the present day. At an alien conference, someone speaks to an audience, "It was aliens!"

I’m guessing “babuthep” is a play on Imhotep?
I wouldn’t say the pyramid builders are forgotten. The “aliens built the pyramids” trope is a joke to all but the daftest of morons and those who profit off them.
