Which outcome characterizes the use of angled stone facings in Inca dry-stone walls?

💡 Explanation

Angled stone facings increase wall stability through rotational interlock between stones during settling. The dry-stone wall displaces stress, because the contact friction opposes collapse, therefore increasing long-term stability, rather than relying on cement or perfectly vertical arrangements.
