Beings capable of interstellar travel wouldn’t be that stupid

“Gay and Drag Queen stories are the necessary influence on future generations to foster social tranquillity. It’s for your own good.”

WOW!!

May 5th marks the destruction of the French battleship Mayonnaise at the hands of the Mexican navy, during the battle of the Sandwich Islands in 1862, where the battle cry of "Sink a de Mayo!" was written into the annals of history

@Ddays, not ridiculing you or your ideas, just trying to inject some humor. I’m not saying they only used chisels. That would be as absurd as claiming you can install a lift kit with just a hammer.

You gotta have tools unless you have some way to sweet talk the stones into place. “Please, oh Great Shapeless Blob of Granite. Join with your brethren and become part of this great edifice to amaze humans tens of millennia from now.” Whether they had help or not, I don’t think they stood...

Why your gas mileage is in the toilet

I would go so far as to say the wedges and the “grenade pin” are necessary

You can’t have it both ways. Did they have better tools or did they use copper?

Are we talking about advanced civilizations or not? The question you should ask is “What kind of chisels were used to split granite?” Of course, chisels are not the only tools used to shape stones. Here’s a video using drill holes

Chisels are always involved in stonework. Along with hammers, drills, wedges, water, sand, fire and other tools and consumables.

$264?!? Should have made sure you had more cash in your wallet.

Some anthropologists and archaeologists traveled to South America to study, among other things, how the ancient people fit their stonework so closely. After discussing various theories at length, an old Indios told them he knew how it was done. He used sand and water between the stones to grind...

The choice that is closest to my opinion is “On The Fence”. I don’t want to go back to carburetors, points & condensers, 3 speed transmissions, leaf springs, drum brakes, manual windows & door locks or two speed wipers. While this level of technology is free of electronic controls, it’s...
