It just blows my mind that if these stones were indeed quarried, transported, and laid and not formed in place by some geopolymer process, who the fuck did it and how? What were these people doing down in Peru that they needed this kind of construction? Given the size of megalithic stones, especially the larger ones, and the average size and strength of modern man, it truly does illicit thoughts of giants. Giants working with these large stones the way we would work with bricks or more accurately stones a fraction of the size and weight. What were the tools they used to accomplish these constructions? We can only imagine tools familiar to us.. saws, lathes, drills etc.. obviously they had to be made of or comprised of materials harder than the stone being hewn. A lot of these stone works have what appear to be weird angles or designs cut into them that perhaps were not just decorative but served a function. Imagine machinery or even just components of large mechanisms. They somehow were fastened to fit onto these stones but have since eroded away completely and left just the impressions where they were. I find this all so fascinating and sadly we most likely will never know for sure what some of these marvels actually are or were and our curious imaginations is all we will ever have to go by.
