In The Evidence, Megalithic Construction… …The three largest man-made stones in the world are found in the Temple of Jupiter at Baalbek in Lebanon. Each weighs an estimated 1,000-tons – or two million pounds. A nearby quarry contains an even bigger stone, known as the Stone of the Pregnant Woman. This giant rectangular block weighs an incredible 1,200-tons. To move it today would take the strength of 21 heavy-lift cranes. “Being in the construction industry, if a certain project is being constructed somewhere, particularly in mountainous areas, how would we carry this machinery, these cranes, and all that? They are so heavy that it’s virtually impossible to take them to the site.” – Peter Palutikof (Architect) [1]
