🧵 Is it possible to drag this with ropes and a lot of people?

Imagine that you have thousands of slaves and buffalos and shit.
How do you move a 900 ton block and put it in place?

Imagine all the people that fit in a football stadium or all the people that built the skyscrapers in New York city moving those blocks, they didn't have TV or computers or phones or cars back then.
Also don't people think they used tricks like rolling it on logs, or using water and stuff

How do you calculate the force required to drag this on flat ground?

Wally Wallington comes to mind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mR
How does the saying go? "Give me a lever big enough, and a fulcrum strong enough, and I'll move the world."

not that I think this is entirely relevant here but there was an american guy who figured out how to move what were I think around 5-20t blocks of rock around a field all on his own using simple leverage principles like rotating on small rocks. or slowly digging out a pit and the upending the rock by removing sandbags.
but the real mysterry for me is pietrie's drill cores, we still don't know how they drilled that far into quartz so efficiently

0.1" per revolution is insane. And then how do you evacuate it with effectively a hole saw.

I have personally pushed a 1.5 ton vehicle unassisted. So if it is placed on a bed of smooth logs with rolling friction similar to car wheels, my guess is not even a full 1,000 slaves or buffalo are required.

Actually is possible to move 1500 tons using only Slavs:

they wouldnt roll it on logs. they would leave pegs on the ends they could slide wheels onto then when they got it where they wanted it they would chip the pegs off

10 spike 4 internal
10 points on a circle
8 spikes
all just by changing the material used to rub on the disk?

that stone is in the process of being quarried but was never finished, so nobody moved it anywhere.

No, anon is likely talking about the more modern guy who made a bunch of youtube videos moving large stones around his back yard as a hobby after retiring from construction.

It depends on the terrain. Where that stone is located its very mountainous, this makes transport very hard unless your temple/building happens to be next to a hill so all the stones can roll downhill until they reach a flattened section. Thats how the Antonia fortress was built

Who says it was done efficiently? Maybe it took them a long time.

No.
But neither can you make very round columns that are huge and that we see hundreds of all over the world.

How were they made with no eyewitness account they had to be slid somehow
