1.  How did they fill the Mizbeach , aka the Mizbeach Adamah,  with dirt?  

CM responds:

I have no makor, but I always simply assumed they built the four vertical sides (without top or bottom), then filled it with earth, and finally applied the top surface once filled. I did wonder whether there are any issues requiring full contact of the Adamah and the top (and sides) over the entire surface which might be difficult to achieve throughout.
