@WorldofAntiquity Perhaps you are not aware of Machu Picchu, which has a distinctly different megalithic core than the surrounding Inca workmanship. The megalithic core features razor-tight joints that go the entire three-dimensional depth of the stone (evidenced by earthquake damage revealing the inner stone faces). This megalithic style is found all over the world, and that was what I was referring to when I mentioned "megalithic", I wasn't simply referring to "large" stones such as those found in Mycenae and Malta, although they are impressive. Once you get an eye for this megalithic construction style, you will see that it is always the bottommost layer anywhere it is found, indicating that it is the oldest style not only at one location, but all over the earth, from Easter Island, to Peru, to Egypt, to India, to Cambodia, and elsewhere. Here is the megalithic core I was referring to in Machu Picchu: https://hiddenincatours.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/quake-shifted-stones_5509.jpg https://images.fineartamerica.com/images/artworkimages/mediumlarge/2/peru-ancient-megalithic-site-of-machu-picchu-sergio-correa.jpg https://hiddenincatours.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/wall-at-machu-picchu.jpg Notice the crude Inca repair work above the mortar-less, razor-tight megalithic work below. Here's more at Easter Island: https://www.ancient-origins.net/sites/default/files/field/image/Megalithic-Wall-of-Vinapu.jpg https://hiddenincatours.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Cusco-A-boy-walks-down-the-foot-street-Hatunrumiyoc-in-Cusco.-The-wall-on-the-left-is-rumored-to-have-been-part-of-the-palace-of-Inca-Roca..jpg You can see "smaller" stones on the bottom, but those stones are just as precisely fitted as the stones above, size doesn't necessarily mean better, but it's obvious that the Inca used smaller blocks above larger megalithic-style stones because smaller stones were easier to work with.
