The reading and the lecture both discuss carved stone balls. The author of the reading believes that there are some possibilities about purpose and meaning of those stone balls. On the other hand, the professor opposes reasons in the reading by providing detailed information.
First, the author claims that these stone balls used to use as an weapons in hunting or fighting. The author thinks that there are some evidences such as some holes on some of the stone balls that can prove it. The professor challenged this point. He explains that that is normal to see some cracks on some of those balls and it is not a sign to prove the theory.
Second, the author mentions that these stone balls have used as a primitive system of measures before. As a matter of fact, people needed to use something to measure thing by and this theory explains that these stones are those scales. The lecturer rebuts this argument by states that some of these balls are heavier than others and it depends on the materials that they made of. The professor points out that these balls are made of different kinds of stones.
Third, the reading says that a carved stone ball served a social goal. This theory is base on some specific designs on stone balls. In the contrast, the lecturer refutes this point.
