What the ancients did with limestone is impressive, no doubt, but the real question is how they were able to cut, shape, and move truly massive granite, basalt, and diorite blocks and statues with a precision that astounds modern engineers and stoneworkers. It doesn’t have to be “aliens” but there is no adequate explanation without revising completely the narrative of early human development. The gist of it seems to be there were pre-flood or pre-cataclysm civilizations. This is something modern academia will not accept.

Well, you mean like this?

No, not like that. Stonehenge is a joke.

There simply isn’t any reasonable explanation _that fits the narrative_. Again - the “aliens” stuff is a red herring, the question is how ancient cultures around the globe were able to quarry and cut, shape and yes, move these stones around. Further, “Why” is another question.

3 angle internal cuts of diorite or granite - making boxes several feet long, several feet high, several feet wide, weighing say 75 or 100 tons, out of a single block of stone. The official story is these were pounded out with stone balls. They are dead flat down to a precision of a few thousandths of an inch. There is simply no way. Granite and diorite are about 7 and 8 on the Mohs hardness scale. Ask a monument builder local to you, call them up. Ask them to give you a quote on a 100 ton granite box (with 30 ton lid) cut from a single block.
