The passage and the lecturer discuss carved stone balls which were found almost 4000 years ago in Scotland. The author of the article has three theories which are the possible usages of this kind of stone. On the other hand, the professor refutes each of the author's opinions with her reasons. I will mention their viewpoints bellow.
The first possibility that the passage asserts is the fact that these stones could be weapons in the past, using for hunting and fighting because the holes on their surface have been seen. The lecturer, nevertheless, has the opposite opinion. She thinks they were not weapons because they could be cracked and broken. She adds these stones have been observed very well and there was no damage point on them.
Secondly, the reading passage claims that they could be part of the first system of weight and measurement since they all had the same shape and size, 70mm in diameter. The professor rejects this hypothesis by mentioning to their different masses. She states that they were in the same size but carved stone balls had been made from a variety of stones so they had various density and weight. Therefore, they could not use as criteria to help ancient folks to compare objects' weight.
Finally, the author of the passage mentions there is a possibility that these balls used as an ornamental object because they curved elaborately. By contrast, the professor has a different point of view. She thinks they were too simple to use for this matter. In addition, there is not even one ancient grave in which the person put with these stones. While the ancient high-rank people were used to putting their valuable things besides them in the grave.
