The empire was built with very hard stone.
Most of their buildings were built from mud bricks, only the temples were built from stone.
They had a sun stone, and they had writings that they used as a calender, the sun stone was build in stone, and you can still see it in the National Archeology museum in Mexico City, it is build on basaltic stone which weighs several tones, it was made in the 1400 by Izcoatl, one of the main Mexican rulers,
They built them when they originally began to ocupy the area of the eastern Mediterranean three thousand years ago. At first they were built of wood, but in the mid 1st Millennium BCE they switched to stone. These stone temples were built in the Greek cities around the Mediterranean and Black Seas thereafter over the next millennium.

Around 350 AD some victorious leaders formed a new empire, the Guptan Empire. Once there was peace, people began to build again, and, for the first time, they began to build free-standing stone temples.

stacking up stone in such a pattern that it creates the acient pyramids we see today.
Inca temples were primarily made out of stone, with finely cut and fitted stones held together without mortar. The most famous example is the Inca temple of Coricancha in Cusco, which was covered in gold and considered the most important temple in the Inca Empire.

The specialized worker for ancient India was called an artisan. These workers knew how to build both brick and stone temples and houses.
