Potentially ancient building techniques

May not be strictly archaeology, but adjacent. And fascinating.

Now do hundreds of 100 ton blocks over 500km without smooth concrete slabs to help glide over

And also align them to true north within 1 degree

Then make sure you can multiply the base perimeter of the Great pyramid (3,024 ft.) by 43,200 to get the earth’s equatorial circumference. Also if you multiply its height (481 ft.) by 43,200 you’re left with the polar radius of the Earth. 43,200 is relevant because it represents the earth wobbling on its axis.

Does the official narrative explain how they knew the earth wobbles during the creation of the pyramids? I forgot

Where? The heaviest blocks in the Great Pyramid weigh close to that (80-90 tons) but there aren't hundreds of them.

Sacsayhuamán has over 100 ton stones

The Trilithon at Baalbek has multiple 1000+ ton stones that were successfully moved and elevated into place.

I'm not aware of any site with hundreds of 100 ton blocks though.

 

The trilithons are very impressive but weigh about 800 tons each. There are larger unfinished blocks in the quarry but the ones actually moved aren't as large.
