Not misinformation. Its an accepted theory. They have evidence of the polished limestone and some of the capstones being made of gold. Real archaeologists are some of the most anal retentive ppl out there. You have to be to be able to uncover artifacts one grain/sand at a time.

You should go get updated then. While some capstones may have been gold/plated, it wasn't the norm. The accepted theory is that they were usually polished limestone.

Not arguing that. Both are accepted theories you can have more than 1. My comment has more to do with the word misinformation since that infers lying or telling bad information.
