Comments: The Twelve-Angled Stone of the Inca
What was supporting the stones above as the 12 angled stone was being fabricated? Gravity works.

ghost: these were masons, not Freemasons.
I think they built the stone walls from the bottom up. Same way them Egyptians built the pyramids.
Erich von Daniken allowed as to the space aliens helping them but not with the heavy lifting.

Yes, I understand that. I have been doing side work for the past 3 years for a very large stone manufacturing facility and am very aware of how HEAVY stones are laid, that's why I asked my question as I did. The stone in question was laid AFTER the above stones. If it was laid before those above, why was it cut with so many different angles? Further, if it was cut with all the angles then laid, all the other stones above would have to be cut to match those angles. There is no obvious reason for doing it that way and is counter productive. The stones are already heavy, so at the quarry we strive to make the installation of them as easy as possible.
