There is the fallen Ramses statue that is 1000 ton. Supposedly moved 500 miles across desert couple of thousand years ago.

There is this story about moving 80 ton statue, even this wasn’t a small task for modern people.

Unfinished Obelisk is 1500 tons but it’s still in the quarry, I wonder how they planned to even lift it up
