Stone constructions weighing thousands of tons – Hidden puzzles about construction techniques of the ancients

The ancient sites mentioned in this article are Ollantaytambo, Sacsayhuaman, Puma Punku, Abusir and Baalbek.

In nearly all of these regions, we can detect signs of striking similarity between them.How do ancient sites in Egypt have so many uncanny similarities with those in South America? How do the giant stone walls of Ollantaytambo bear such striking similarities to the ancient walls of Egypt, which are located halfway around the world?

Does this mean that ancient civilizations once had extremely advanced construction techniques?

What kind of technology did the ancient people of Puma Punku use 12,000 years ago, allowing them to create impressive structures that defy conventional logic?

Somehow, the builders of structures such as Puma Punku, Ollantaytambo, Sacsayhuaman and Abusir managed to work with huge blocks of stone weighing more than 100 tons each.



All of these structures exhibit unbelievable features: Corners cut to perfect squares, precise cuts reminiscent of modern laser cutting tools, and perfection. So much so that even a piece of paper can’t fit in the middle.

One such amazing example is the Sacsayhuaman site in Peru.

We have giant rock formations also present in Baalbek, Lebanon. According to experts, the history of this ancient site can be nearly 10,000 years ago. This is an ancient city named after the god Ba’al. Phoenician legend has it that Baalbek was the place where Ba’al first descended upon arriving on Earth in ancient times.Under the Kotel Square in Jerusalem, archaeologists discovered another set of super-heavy stone structures that were part of the ancient Temple of Jerusalem, which had been destroyed several times before. The largest block weighs 570 tons, but there are a few others that weigh between 200 and 500 tons.



Located near Cuzco in what is now Peru, we can see one of the most monumental ancient monuments on the planet: Ollantaytambo. Here, you can find evidence of extremely advanced technologies that were used by ancient civilizations thousands of years ago.

What kind of ancient technology could create intricate rhombic cross patterns on this Andesite rock?
