There literally was limitless energy available to the literal ancient Egyptians, as well as literally 19th century literal London.
Why did it take fossil energy to literally reach our present state?
That limitless energy is presumably also literally available to you, why aren't you literally using it now and why are you limited?
I do, and they did.
Wind, hydro and solar were the only sources of energy long before somebody decided to revolutionize the industry using coal and oil. They also burned wood though, but even that is more sustainable than fossil fuels.
