Antheaps are for ants.
Ants do not build cloud piercing towers of adamantine steel and glass, the mind of man does. YMMV.
Actually, they do. At least in ant terms they do. Some ants build extremely high (relative to their size) towers, others build in trees, bushes, etc. And they communicate, very well in fact, and use boats, fight wars, farm, herd, have slaves - in short pretty much everything humans do, albeit a bit differently. We can only conjecture about whether they have religion, literature (could be at least oral tradition literature), music, and the like, but I certainly wouldn't doubt it. Although when ants build hi-rises, it's for a good, sound, environmental reason.
