[0:00]If you build your house using this stone, it would be almost impossible to break it for centuries. In fact, this is an ancient dry stone construction technique that is thousands of years old. In this method, craftsmen shape the stones so precisely that they fit together like a puzzle and lock perfectly without using cement or mortar.
