Architects and stonemasons, huge palace and temple clusters were built by the Maya without benefit of the wheel or animal transport.
A. huge palace and temple clusters were built by the Maya without benefit of the wheel or animal transport
B. without the benefits of animal transport or the wheel, huge palace and temple clusters were built by the Maya
C. the Maya built huge palace and temple clusters without the benefit of animal transport or the wheel
D. there were built, without the benefit of the wheel or animal transport, huge palace and temple clusters by the Maya
E. were the Maya who, without the benefit of the wheel or animal transport, huge palace and temple clusters

答案是C，贴出官方解释：
Architects and stonemasons are people, not things. This introductory element cannot logically modify huge palace and temple clusters. Revising the sentence so that the Maya immediately follows architects and stonemasons not only corrects the error in modification, it also transforms the sentence from the passive voice (were built) to the preferred active voice (built).

根据解释的确C在逻辑上最符合，但是Architects and stonemasons到底做的是什么成分呢？虽然我觉得是同位语，可是工匠，玛雅人...这样的同位语句意说的通吗？虽然说不上有错，这种说法觉得好别扭

大神们指教一下不胜感激。。
