LACMA's getting their megalith to it's spot at the museum should be a case in point. Very few megaliths are moved.

Actually not too difficult:
1. Set upright stones in place as support columns.
2. Earth fill around these columns.
3. Earth fill a gradual slope to the height of the columns.
4. Pull/push cap slab into place over log rollers.
5. Slowly remove earth fill.
6. Hope.

community college for details and calculations. (Don’t forget your slate tablet!)
