Low-tech (meaning stone-age) construction methods were used
to build the great temples on Malta before the pyramids
were built, in Southeast Asia long before modern machinery was
available, and across Central America. The intricate stone-work
of the Incas required great technical skill but not modern
tools. Did you think that because our ancestors had no
computers they were stupid? Go to a library and start
reading.
