Breaking Rocks

Unfortunately I did not include anything in the foreground of this picture to calibrate the size. The thin slabs of stone are about 8-10 cm (3-4 inches) thick. They were delivered as large blocks like those directly behind--about 80-100cm(30-40in) square by 2-3 m (6-8ft) long. Has near as I can tell they are being cut in to these peices by men using a hammer and chisel.
