The reading and lecture both discussed about carved stone bolls which is found in scotland. While the reading stats that round shape carved stone are uniform size and some are ornamented. So archaeologists are confused about the purpose and meaning of carved stone and they provide three theories to find out the purpose and meaning of stones. However, the lecture say that this three theories are not convincing and refutes each of the author's reasons.
First of all, the reading stats that carved stone ball are used as a weapons that are used for hunting and fighting purpose. The reading also say that holes found in balls so it a kind of weapons that can be throw of swing it. However, the lecture refutes this point by saying that neolithic period are used arrow and some of the stone are found broken.
In addition, the reading makes the argument that carved stone balls ware used as a weight and measures scale. The reading passage also say that balls are uniform in size so they are may be standard unit of measurement. However, the professor refutes this points by say that size was uniform but mass was different. Because, the materials was different some are made from clay, stone etc. so it was not uniform measure scale.
Finally, the reading passage argues that carved stone balls are represent social status of their owners. But, the lecture refutes this claim by pointing out that some balls are simple designs and not ball are found the grave and tomb. So the lecture clear that it not represent any social status.
