I think that was a recent discovery, let me check

https://www.discovermagazine.com/planet-earth/who-built-the-egyptian-pyramids-not-slaves 2021

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2010/jan/11/great-pyramid-tombs-slaves-egypt 2010

https://arstechnica.com/science/2016/06/5000-year-old-pay-stub-shows-that-ancient-workers-were-paid-in-beer/ 2016

so yeah kind of recent in the grand scheme of things, but you are correct
