How did they make the cuts and transport the rocks. Some of the cuts defy explanation.

No, they don't.

Your personal incredulity notwithstanding, that is...

Step 1: chisel crack
Step 2: insert dry wooden wedge into chisseled crack
Step 3: wet wood and wait
Step 4: wood cracks rock as it expands leading to near perfect flat planed sides
Step 5: finish with chisels to make absolutely perfect
Step 6: use pullies and massive frickton of slaves to load blocks on canal barges and raft to building site.
Step 7: use massive frickton of slaves to offload blocks from barges onto wooden rollers and pull up ramps to installation location.
Step 8: fit stones into place

no they don't.
How did they carve statues 2,500 years ago? Are all the statues from ancient Greece made by aliens?


You don't have to be a genius to understand the basics of physics. Like i said, my 4 year old son recognizes how to build a more stable structure by making a pyramid like structure with his blocks.

I helped build a log cabin from scratch. We didn't have a means to move the large logs that were sometimes a quarter mile away from our cabin site through the swamp. We simply used our brains and muscles efficiently. lift the big log up (sometimes using a lever to help), put some smaller logs under it, roll it across the smaller logs while taking the last log and bringing it to the front. We got 4 logs that weighed probably close to 1500lbs 15ft in the air using our muscles, levers, and blocks. We were as primitive as could be and rarely used modern tools for all of this. The only modern tool we used was a chainsaw, and nails and a hammer, if you want to call nails and hammer modern.

Like i tell my kid, which i stole from Stewie, "whether you think you can or can't, you're right"
You seem to think we can't.
