USING GIANT STONES IN CONSTRUCTION CALLS

FOR ENORMOUS EXPERTISE

Structures produced using
stones weighing tens of
thousands of tons still
amaze people today. Moving
such enormous stones can
be done only using ad-
vanced construction equip-
ment like winches and steel
cables. It is impossible to ex-

tract these stones from the
quarries, much less trans-
port them, set them in place
or work them using such
equipment as timber, logs,
ropes and easily-broken cop-
per tools, of the type evolutionists claim

were used. The small picture shows how
the head section of the massive Ramses
statue could be transported only by using
winches with steel cables.

Baalbek, Temple of Jupiter

Giant stone blocks were also used in the construction of this edifice, now known as the Temple of

Jupiter. The stone block marked with red in the small photograph is one of three large blocks used in
the retaining wall. Each of these three blocks is some 4.5 meters (15 feet) high, 3.5 meters (11 feet) wide
and 19 meters (62 feet)long. Their average weight is around 800 tons. That such huge blocks were ex-
tracted and transported from their quarries suggests the advanced construction equipment that must
have been used.
