The stones on PumaPunku are on the order of 1-200 tons.
The picture you show is from Baalbek and shows a stone weighing about 800-1000 tons.
The largest mobile/truck crane (Liebherr) can lift 1200 tons. The largest fixed/gantry crane (Taisun) can lift an eye popping 20,000 tons!!!

So we need to stop this Erik von Daniken insanity “we could not lift it with a bunch of our cranes today” It’s getting silly.

But let’s put all that aside. You see the stones there, how do YOU think they moved them?

The Sphinyx may be 800,000 years old.

Wasn’t Velikovsky the one who wrote first about this, “Worlds in Collusion”

Lifting and moving from a prepared site is one thing. Cutting that stone out of a mountain and moving it miles and miles to that location is another.

We could not do that today, I still maintain. (and if we could, it is only with the biggest industrial machinery we have- how did they do it 10,000 years ago?)

Now you're getting into a discussion on the subject of the Divine Council which logically leads to your query!
Dr. Michael Heiser (drmsh.com) has studied it extensively and collected other studies on this. Here is a footnote from his book "The Unseen Realm" (just finished it):

"μονογενής 3439 is literally “one of a kind,” “only,” “unique” (unicus), not “only-begotten,” which would be μονογέννητος (unigenitus), and is common in the LXX in this sense (e.g. Judg 11:34, Ps 21 (22):21, 24 (25):16, Tob 3:15). It is similarly used in the NT of “only” sons and daughters (Lk 7:12, 8:42, 9:38), and is so applied in a special sense to Christ in Jn 1:14, 18, 3:16, 18, 1 Jn 4:9, where the emphasis is on the thought that, as the “only” Son of God, He has no equal and is able fully to reveal the Father. We cannot enter here into the doctrinal aspects of the word, or into a discussion on the sources, Orphic or Gnostic, from which John is sometimes supposed to have drawn his use of it, but reference may be made to the art. by Kattenbusch “Only Begotten” in Hastings’ DCG ii. p. 281f. where the relative literature is given. A few exx. of the title from non-Biblical sources will, however, be of interest. In an imprecatory tablet from Carthage of iii/A.D., Wünsch AF p. 1837, we find—ὁρκίζω σε τὸν θεὸν . . . τὸν μονογενῆ τὸν ἐξ αὑτοῦ ἀναφανέντα, where the editor cites the great magical Paris papyrus, 1585 εἰσάκουσόν μου ὁ εἷς μονογενής. With this may be compared P Leid Vv. 34 (iii/iv A.D.) (= II. p. 21) εὐχαριστῶ σοι κύριε ὅ[τι] μοι [ἔλυσεν] τὸ ἅγιον πνεῦμα, τὸ μονογενές, τὸ ζωόν. See also Vett. Val. p. 1132. An inscr. in memory of a certain Plutarchus, Kaibel 1464 (iii/iv A.D.) describes him as μουνογενής περ ἐὼν καὶ πατέρεσσι φίλος. And the word is apparently used as a proper name in C. and B. i. p. 115, No. 17 (Hierapolis) Φλαβιανὸς ὁ καὶ Μονογονις εὐχαριστῶ τῇ θεῷ, where Ramsay thinks that we should probably read Μονογένης or Μηνογένης. For the true reading in Jn 1:18 it is hardly necessary to refer to Hort’s classical discussion in Two Dissertations, p. 1ff. James Hope Moulton and George Milligan, The Vocabulary of the Greek Testament (London: Hodder and Stoughton, 1930), 416–417."

Aliens.

Got it. So aliens built advanced civilizations able to harness the immense energies required for inter stellar flight, possibly invented and build hyperdrives, human stasis, tractor beams, travelled light years to find Earth so they can... cut and move some large-ish stones.

Is that the working theory?

Actually I think some of these could be a ‘marker’ for other civilizations.

They came here from Orion, so they laid out a structure in the shape of how Orion looks from here.

It is big so you can see it, if you are from another planted and are doing a look around this planet- they are easy to spot.

Just a working theory though
