I was just looking at your hook, which as written now is misleading. It implies that the walls lean outwards at the top, whereas what pictures of the palace show (and the text of the article confirms) is walls that slope outwards at the base. (Sloping out 45 degrees at the top would be structurally impossible anyway).

To avoid the problem, the text should be corrected to something like: ...that sloped outward 45 degrees at the base?

I rephrased it as suggested above. Awien (talk) 02:07, 21 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-10-21T02:07:00.000Z","author":"Awien","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Awien-2012-10-21T02:07:00.000Z-Awien-2012-10-20T22:10:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->
