The article explaons that archaeoloists do not agree about carved stone balls, that found in Scotland and belong to the Neolothic period, purposes and meaning and provide three theories of support. However, the professor refutes each of the theories that stated in the article.
First, the reading states the first theory that these stone balls were weapons used in fighting or hunting. The professor refute this point by explaining that during the Neolithic period signs of weapons wear was so common. If we examined these weapons, we would find a cracked, or piece broken. However, the surface of stone carved balls are well-preserved and nor damage. Therefore,the professor concludes that the carved stone balls were not weapons.
Second, the article posits that the carved stone balls used as a primitve system of weights and measures. In other words the balls representated a unit of measure. On the hand, the professor demponstrates that these stones are composed of different type of stones such as sandstone, limestone and so on. So, the balls have different mass, and by default they have different density. She also says there is a ball is much heavier than the other. Because of it made from different type of substance.
Third, the article states that the carved stone balls served a social purpose. The professor opposes this point by explaining the inconsistency thing in ths theroy. She states that if the carved stone ball doing so, it should be found when these dead bodies, the higher ranking person, when they buried in their tombs or cuffins. However, no carved stone balls have been found there which proofs the professor point.
