18 years to carve from top-down. Impossible to accomplish with today's technologies. How was it done in the past?
>>
>>19010681
Very carefully.
>>

You forget about Petra.
Built with the same care in a even most difficult place to do it.

This. Lol

I bet a bunch of Mexicans with power tools could do it in 6 months

>>19010681
OP, your either badly misinformed or completely retarded. It's not rock cut architecture. It's stone built architecture cut out of granite (foundations) and sandstone (superstructure).

According to Wikipedia one of the rock hewn churches is believed to be the largest monolithic church in the world.

>>19010706
To accomplish it, they would have to had carve out 5 tons of rock per hour for 18 years non-stop. Again, something that cannot be achieved today.

Carving stone giants in a remote pacific island was also an herculean task, that seem to have a hidden angle to it.

Is at least hypothetically possible.

A guy just finished carving a an art studio into limestone over the last 25 years as a personal sanctuary by himself. You dont think coordinated slave labor could do an entire city?

OP said it's impossible because all capable humans have left the region.

It's perfectly possible. You just have a hard time accepting a bunch of brown people from 1500 years were perfectly capable of creating something without the help of space aliens.
>>
>>19011654
no, OP said it's impossible because he's racist and myopic from spending his life in some crappy suburb in a place like Tucson.
>>
>>19010681
Slave labor!
