Interesting video on the building of the megalithic structures in Peru and other areas. A plausible explanation of how they fit the walls together so perfectly. Does not require ancient civilizations or aliens.

What does he say? I cant support his speech pattern. Condescending..
Does he explain how the Incas were able to move and shape the rocks? I hope he isnt thinking that the Rocks were laid on top of each other and the acid mud did all the work…How did the Incas work with mud that chemically melts volcanic rock?
Supposedly, the paper cited within the video states the chemical reaction with the silicates within the stones softens the stones edges and gravity does the final fitting. The acid used was a natural result of the mining of the stones which can be found in mining operations even today. Whether this is a plausible explanation or not I can’t say. There may be historical references to “softening”of the stones by the invaders who took the gold cited within the video. The stones were supposedly roughly prefitted by the workers prior to putting them in place. No doubt, this is his version of “high octane speculation”. It would take someone willing to do some experimentation to actually verify whether this would work or not.
I understood it to be the silicate in the volcanic mud that reacts to the energy source and turned acidic, that particular mud having the necessary chemical agents present in it. Its kind of like the Roman Concrete.. The blood they were mixing into it, created air bubbles, that allowed crystals to form due to the particular composition of the volcanic mud coming from around Rome. (which made their concrete the hardest and they could make it set under water (ergo their big huge sea ports) Its just the particular chemical structure of that particular volcanic soil..which appears to have been transported all over south america (I wonder what they called it..) and Egypt. Or its the same chemical structure in Egypt and in South Amercia. But how did the Inca’s use the mud.. it has a ph of 0.5….It does show a way to soften the stone. But there remains the mystery of how they moved and positioned and finally adjusted the stones. The patterns dont allow for Tetris like dropping down megaliths until they ‘mold’ together. Edges and corners (and internal corners) too crisply cut.
There is little doubt that more research needs to be conducted on this particular mechanism. He did not, as far as I can determine, address the moving of the stones. He did, somewhat inadequately, address the shaping of the stones. The interesting aspect of this video, to me, was it did not require “ancient aliens” or a “preexisting, ancient high tech civilization” and could be accomplished with the means at hand. My assumption was this was his brand of “high octane speculation” concerning a question which has puzzled archeologists for centuries. It will remain an unanswered question until more research is conducted to determine its plausibility.
melting the stone (which it’s possible they did.. there is no new science.. only constate re-discovery :)) It doesnt explain how they fitted the walls together.
If you get time, take a look at :
Xochicalco
Chimalacatlán
Huautla
tomb at Mitla
tomb at Monte Albán
Tajin, the “City of Thunder”
Acatzingo
Ikil in Yucatan.
Blocks.. 7 meters long.. fitted together so a razor blade cant fit in the joints.. regardless of the polishing technology used to assure a fine fit.. just think of having to move a 7 metre long block of granite and readjust it and readjust upto to 4 or even 7 other pieces that are being fitted at the same time.. the mind truely boggles.
The Incas said themselves that they didnt build the temples or the causeways or the underground tunnel systems.. they said that the giants constructed it all and in the space of one night. (kind of like the Melisandre legend of European kings.. buildings springing up out of the ground in a night…)
