Here, amidst the rugged and rocky landscape, we witness an awe-inspiring sight - a colossal block of marble being transported down to the valley using an intricate system of ropes. The scene is bustling with activity as workers meticulously maneuver around their small masonry buildings nearby. These humble structures are likely their homes, providing shelter for those dedicated individuals who have devoted themselves to this arduous industry. The photograph captures not only the physicality and strength required for such laborious work but also showcases the remarkable architecture involved in extracting raw materials from nature's bounty. It reminds us that behind every magnificent structure lies countless hours of dedication from skilled craftsmen like these quarriers.
