Gee, how'd they ever build it using non-modern techniques? LABOR and time.....
And tools...and that is really the heart of my question.

Did it require time and manpower to quarry the stones that comprise the Trililthon? Absolutely. But it's the TOOLS required to move those 800 ton stones a half mile...and lift them into position within the structure that interest me. You're not moving an 800 ton megalithic stone with just manpower. Those people had tools to do the job...and we seemed to have lost them somehow...the tools..and the technological know how.
