i think it has more to do with what color skin people think they had and not how advanced they actually were...
The fact that the OP is talking about a road (some stuff we build every day) instead of a huge pyramid also helps.
Yeah but the Colosseum tho. That's some extremely advanced architecture and it's HUGE. The fact that most of it is still standing after centuries of earthquakes (and being used as a quarry for other construction!) really says something.
