The Inca civilization fitted giant stones together without mortar, using a technique called dry masonry. Their exceptional craftsmanship can be seen in structures like Sacsayhuamán and Machu Picchu. This skill allowed for the creation of durable and stable buildings that have withstood the test of time.
