WOW! WOW! WOW! 4000years old! I feel so little... It is simply amazing that not only still standing but it's still being used! I don't believe that any of the buildings built today will be around in 4000 years time but at least due to our technology images will be seen and recorded forever...

Ed - Another beautiful time travel photo! Building new on top of old provides a constant reminder of the continuum of history to all who live there and pass by. WIth you photo, we are reminded also. Thank you for sharing. Thad
I see they have done a good job of continuing the same style of stone work despite the passage of centuries. This time line boogles the mind. Very well done!
The way the stones are fitted reminds me of ancient Inca stonework. Good that you picked a spot that demonstrated clearly that the basic concept was fitting the stones on hand together, not in making the stones (or bricks) fit to a pre-conceived pattern.
Greetings from Chris!
