TPO-25 - Integrated Writing Task In 1938 an archaeologist in Iraq acquired a set of clay jars that had been excavated two years earlier by villagers constructing a railroad line. The vessel was about 2,200 years old. Each clay jay contained a copper cylin
The reading reports the finding of clay jars in Iraq and the archaeologists claim about their usage as batteries. The passage repudiates the claim, but the professor objected the three reasons stated in the reading.
First, the reading states that there is no evidence of any wire or conductor near the vessels. The professor explains that since clay jars excavated by local people and not archaeologists, it is very likely these wires or conductors are overlooked.
Second, the reading explains a possible usage of jars to hold scrolls but the professor states that although it may use for holding scrolls there is a possibility that these jars adopted to use as batteries.
Third, the reading questions the possible use of electricity for ancient people. However, the professor provides two possible usages. Initially, as electricity make a tingling feeling to human, it is very likely that they use it to convince others they have magical powers. Finally, she also says that they may use it as a healing tool as we use today.
