I think your under estimating how incredibly good at “stacking stones” these cultures where.

Here is my source material. In it it goes over the extreme tolerances and incredible craftsmanship of the Inca and Tiahuanaco. It’s not like laying brick or stone masonry (also difficult) we do with mortar today.
Also these structures are made by a bunch of people working over years and in the Incas over vast distances. All done with out written language or at least one we fully understand. (I am aware of quipu) So they had the infrastructure and advanced enough society to train and standardize there building techniques.
Tiahuanaco are considered more advanced than the Inca and their collapse predated the founding of the Inca empire by roughly 600 to 500 years. Not saying they couldn’t of provided some sort of inspiration for the Inca. But it also makes them more impressive and proves my point.
You should actually read the wiki if you’re going to cite it.
Neither I am just explaining how you clearly have no idea what your talking about. That there isn’t a consensus on how these techniques came about and that they are impressive.
Probably best to not do that when declaring someone to be wrong. I’m not even sure what I’m wrong about. If you don’t have any explanation other than that they learned it from previous cultures, I’m not sure why you know I’m wrong.
There is no “believed” about it, and there is a lot of developmental history, so I don’t know why you’re saying that.
For example, there’s Tiwanaku. There are many sites preceding it and post-dating it.

There were a huge number of Andean civilizations that came before the Inca and many of them had plenty of experience working stone.

The Inca were just the last in a long line of civilizations in that area.
Furthermore, carving and stacking stones doesn’t take a genius.

Am I witnessing a unidan moment?
I just looked up what Unidan was and talk about caring to much about internet points.
Like where do people find the time?
Feel free to explain it then. Which is it going to be, Aliens or Aryans from Atlantis?

Here I make it simple.
Your wrong I’m right.
