I'd also read that the polishing of the skulls, with sand, would have taken 300 years.
But the skulls are also carved with the grain going the wrong way, which *should* have caused the quartz to flake and crack. How the skulls could have been carved, even in the 19th century with modern tools, is somewhat of a mystery.
