Below you will find a picture of Hadjar el Gouble (the stone of the south) entitled megalith. It is perfectly hewn (as is the trilithon). This particular stone weighs in excess of 1000 metric tons and is still in the quarry location about 1/2 mile from the actual temple of Baalbek.

You will also find a picture of what is known as the trilithon. The 3 stones were brought from the same quarry 1/2 mile away and they each weigh in excess of 800 tons each.

In each picture there are people located in the picture for size reference.
Are you saying we couldn't move those things today if we wanted to?

Cause I've seen whole houses lifted off their foundation and relocated before (on tv of course)... Now I imagine the house doesn't weigh nearly as much as those rocks, but it is a whole lot larger and fragile and still weighs quite a bit. The fragile part I think it a lot harder to get around than the weight personally. There's not much u can do to a 1000 ton rock thats goina break it...
