Magic Inca
An enormous stone forming part of the outer wall of the great Incan fortress and temple of Saqsaywaman in the hills overlooking Cuzco. The stones were transported from >20km away. You can see how well they shaped the stones to fit together. The stonework for temples and important buildings was of this style, while for the stonework of commoners buildings etc the stones were not shaped.

How did they manage to cut these rocks without metal tools?I have seen various suggestions but it still seems impossible.

They used haematite hammers. I heard that a Dutch archaeologist tried to cut granite and similar stones with Incan tools and succeeded although it took a very long time! He also demonstrated the moving of enormous stones distances similar to the Incans using stone rollers and ropes.

regardless of tools how on earth did they get such tight fits.
I remember a BBC progreamme hilariously trying to replicate it...
mind you one of their experts had a theory that they shaped the stone using heat from the rays of the sun...!!

There are a few places you can see Incan temple walls in poor repair. When the wall is down you can see that the surfaces of building stones which touch other stones are polished amazingly smooth. Even after errosion they are almost glassy smooth. Again I was told they use haematite to polish them. The joins are amazing (you couldnt get a razor blade in between) and it must have taken so long!
