One method not mentioned here is copper saw blades, they were used to cut flint that was then pressure flaked to produce some of the most beautiful blades known. Limestone wouldn't be much of a problem. These flint blades came from Egypt. Photobucket Photobucket

What method was used to construct the pyramids in Mexico? Are the construction techniques similar or identical?

Saw some of those blades in the Louvre. They are fantastic.
