conection material betwwen stone blocks as you can see it on this photos
The "connection material", between the sandstone beds, which Ciko talks about above is not "connection material". In some cases, this "material" between the sandstone beds is just a natural layer of finer-grained sedimentary rock, which is often interlayered within natural sandstone beds. As well documented in the published literature and observed by the Bosnian geologists, with who I corresponded, such interlayering of sand and finer grained sediments, as seen in the pictures posted by Ciko, is quite typical of fluvial and lacustrine sedimentary rocks like those, which comprise the local bedrock. In other cases, this material is soil, which has filled cracks that have opened up as the sandstone has weathered. Such crack fills can be cemented to varying degrees with calcuim deposits precipitated from local groundwater and within the weathering zone. The material filling joints is nothing more than a variable mixture of calcium deposits, which has precipitated from local groundwater, and sediment, which has infilltrated into and filled open joints. Such so-called "connection material" can found in outcrops all over the world filling joints between blocks of naturally jointed bedrock and between individual layers.
What I would like to have explained is:
1. if these are manmade blocks, why do their thickness, size, and shape and the orientation of the joints separating them vary so greatly?
How wildly and widely variable the thickness of "blocks" within different layers can be is seen in three layers shown by the photograph at
http://www.bosnian-pyramid.com/gallery/ ... 600mat.JPG . For example, judging form the photograph lower layer appears to be about 6 times thicker than the middle layer and twice as thick as the upper layer.
and 2. Why do the ripple marks on the surface of difference blocks within a layer all have the same orientation?
An example of such ripple marks can be seen in the bottom righthand photograph at

Close up pictures of the stone "pavements" from this and other "excavations", which I have acquired, show individual ripple marks, which match up perfectly across the joints, on adjacent blocks . The only sensible way to explain this is that the layers, exhibiting such ripple marks were broken up in place. This possibly happened when these layers were folded after lithification during the formation of an anticline, of which the pseudo-pyramids of the Moon and Sun are part.
