Regarding the Tiahuanaco culture that built it (if that's still what we're talking about,) the tools they had were of a copper alloy almost as hard as wrought iron.
The alloyed it, but they also benefitted from naturally-occurring elements that are already mixed in with the copper from the region. So, an inadvertent type of bronze.

I was hoping you might show up, as I know you're much more well versed on South American cultures than I am. Yes, I'm still talking about the Tiahuanaco culture, though I think some other members may have taken a nearby Stargate even further into fantasyland....
Thank you for the added information. Just out of curiosity, do you happen to know what other minerals were alloyed with cooper to make their tools? I've never heard of a copper alloy with similar strength to wrought iron, though, admittedly, I don't know all that much about metallurgy.

Arent you the guy who said you have made a smaller version of Puma Punku I asked for evidence and I am still waiting or is it jusr BS?

No, I'm the guy who you, in a rather poor attempt at trying to discredit me, claimed said such things, but had you basic reading comprehension skills, you would see that I never said anything of the sort.
Not that I would have expected anything less than misrepresentation and barefaced lies out of you. After all, just look at the sort of videos you fill your mind with. You spend that much time listening to people lie about things, and it's bound to rub off a little...
Speaking of waiting for evidence....When are you going to be providing some? You've authored quite a few threads claiming to have evidence of a number of astonishing things, but you still haven't provided any of it...I would say I'm waiting, but I know better than to wait for that which doesn't exist.

Jean-Pierre Protzen did some experiments in stone cutting and fitting, for anyone actually interested:

If you take time to closely study the stones you will see precision in the geometry, the curvature of the surfaces, the straightness of the edges, the perfection of the joins, the mirror symmetry, ordering of the chaos e.g. machi pichcu. The logistics involved in moving and maneuver and aligning exactly the stones which goes far beyond the technological ability of bronze age axers. Some of these alignments are on curve surface joins for fss, which blows away any bunker story they were made by simple bronze age people. There are features as well that defy a conventation explanation the drilling coring of holes through the stone which I have seen in some vids on this subject, the precision equals anything we have to day using modern technology.
Its a pity the Ufo people get their claws into this area as it really an area modern engineering and science would love to get to study but don't because of fear of ridicule.
What is true is that you don't study the studies, you just assume they haven't been done.

What I find with your mannerism of this site and types of subject is you use broad statements and make subtle insinuations people have made no effort to study the issue. This site is about denying ignorance but your style on here is apart of that ignorance. If you cant link the information to back up your statements. In fact, create a thread as Op and you link the data and Ill scutinize it to the nth degrees you can count on it. If you don't want to do that never reply to me on this site again.
