I read you post, I just want to ignore it because is not a valid argument. What you probably saw is way far from what Incas and Pre- Columbian Cultures did. You should read more about the topic before make a post.
Andean people constructions were made using a multi-discipline knowledge, inclluding spirituality and practical use of such structures. The structures had more than one purpose, they were astronomical observatories, weather forecast devices and temples, all at the same time.
Your tradesmen only can replicate similar stones in very small scale and they didn't build anything similar as far as we know. Cut a few pieces of stone means nothing. For andean civilizations, every single detail of a wall could mean something and have a pourpose.
By the way, I was born in the land that was part of the Inca's Empire. I guess that counts ?

Beautiful quarry. But a quarry none the less.
Experimental archaeologist here. This has all been reproduced with tools and equipment known to the era.
Its fabulous and beautiful and wonderful, but it's really not a great mystery or conspiracy.
Are these knobs a form of language that we don’t know about? I’ve heard people say they are for strapping ropes around to drag the rock well that’s just stupid in my opinion as you can see in this photo this object wasn’t going to be moved anywhere –
Let's see your work and I'll be the judge. I'm an architect and developer. I hire stone masons all the time. If you're any good, maybe I'll hire you.

Stone mason today would have a difficult time reproducing this utilizing modern equipment.
Every time I see someone regurgitating this same tripe, it infuriates me. What's your source for the above? Because I am something of a stonemason. I work primarily with granite, and there isn't a single individual feature shown that I could not recreate in a day or two with modern equipment. The entire piece would take a good long while to duplicate, but it could be done relatively easily. Take away the modern equipment, and I could still recreate any feature you ask me to, though it would take significantly longer. To say that it couldn't be done or that we would have trouble doing the same thing with modern equipment is nothing but ignorant.
In between other projects, I work on enclosures for high-end DACs for a company that my company is contracted with. These enclosures are solid granite, with a high-polish and dimensions and right angles accurate to 1/100th of an inch, and guess what? It's done entirely by hand. So please, instead of regurgitating what they said on Ancient Aliens, and furthering ignorance and outright lies, try educating yourself on stone working techniques.
Oh and buddy, don't call me ignorant. Not only are you in violation of the user agreement, you're showing you really have nothing more to say that's of any value. If that's the only way you know how to debate, then this conversation is over.

Yours is a pretty big post for someone who never had a chance to stand in front of any of these kind of structures and never touched them. I know my comment was strong, but we must be responsable for what we post.
Show me photos/videos of what you think it's like Inca's or Pre-Culumbian structures made by your tradesmen and explain the cosmogony behind that.
Exactly! Not sure why anyone would look at this site and call it a quarry. It's clearly not that at all.

For those saying this is just a quarry.
This doesn't look like its being quarried, it disappears under that huge boulder!
Its also not rock from which they've cut stone, just take a look at the close up below!

It is a Quarry that was a work in progress when an Earth Cycle ended and the boulder was placed there during the event.
The little stubs you see with cubes quarried out of them are the left-overs,showing it was a Quarry with work in-situ and in progress.
The general consensus it that it may or may not be a quarry,but is definately an ancient stone construct,and wasnt built from the boulder laying on top of part of a large base or platform that for all we know may very well be a ROOF.

I'm not understanding
Are you saying that the picture above shows rock from which they have cut square cubes, and thats why what we see has "stubs" left behind?
If that is what your saying then we'll have to disagree
I think what we are looking at in the picture above is the base of a building.
I agree about the big boulder being the result of some event though, if it was a flood then it must have been instant to have shifted a rock of that size.
