The rock hewn churches of Lalibela are distinctive because of which construction technique?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Churches carved from a single rock, working downward from the top

At Lalibela in Ethiopia, the churches were carved downward from the top of a solid mass of rock. Rather than assembling a building from separate blocks, builders cut away rock to form both the exterior and interior spaces. Therefore, construction by joining coral blocks is not correct. Exam tip: Associate Lalibela with Ethiopia and monolithic rock-hewn churches.
