Masonry, or the craft of building structures out of individual units of masonry materials such as stone, brick, or concrete block, has been around since ancient times. Kamoi is a term used to describe a particular type of masonry, in which the individual blocks are shaped, cut, and placed in such a way as to create a strong, durable, and aesthetically pleasing architectural structure. The blocks, which are typically composed of natural stone, are placed in a manner that allows them to interlock with one another and form a unified whole. This type of masonry is particularly well suited for the construction of structures such as walls, retaining walls, and even bridges.
