Rubble Masonry

edit

Shouldn't "whereas masonry using irregularly shaped stones is known as rubble masonry" qualify as Cyclopean masonry terms-wise ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.14.207.82 (talk) 11:39, 1 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

All of these terms being unfamiliar to me, I consulted the Cyclopean article, which seems quite different from what is described here. 205.197.242.189 (talk) 07:05, 20 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
It appears to me that ashlar is the finest/most particular grade of stone work, Cyclopean masonry somewhere below it, and rubble masonry somewhere below that. Rubble masonry may include stones that are round, very irregularly shaped, and/or of wildly varying sizes. TooManyFingers (talk) 18:08, 23 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Quadrilateral?

edit

The image "Ashlar polygonal masonry in Cuzco, Peru" seems to contradict the sentence "Ashlar is related but distinct from other stone masonry that is finely dressed but not quadrilateral, such as curvilinear and polygonal masonry" in the lead, not being quadrilateral. — Preceding unsigned comment added by (talkcontribs) 09:33, 11 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
