Well no kidding, being made of stone and all. How else to move it
around! Maybe they didn't know about paper?

Every where we hear that they did not use the wheel.
I wonder if these civilizations have ever use a tool like the lathe

produce crafts.


Apparently the wheel was not known to them, though I believe there


are known

wheeled toys from the Aztec.

It's a bit of a problem for Mormon theology, as the wheel would have


been

well-known to the Israelites. It's also a bit strange that the


"aliens"

never passed along the modest technology of the wheel while teaching


the

Amerinds all the advanced math and astronomy. Perhaps their


"chariots" had

no wheels, in spite of Von Daniken..

I don't know about the \Aztecs, but the Myans did indeed know about a
Wheel. It was a Holy symbol, and therefore, they would not use it for
anything a mundain as a tool. Their calander is round.
