                     An Ancient Mystery from Costa Rica


                         The giant stone balls of Costa Rica are one of the
                             fascinating
                     most fascinated human artifacts. The balls made in

                     prehistoric times and are perfectly round. The stone
                     comes from local mountains. It’s likely that stone tools

                     were use to make the balls. The biggest ball is eight feet
                     across and it is weighed 16 tons.

                         Unfortunately, we may never be discovered the true

                     purpose of the stones since only a small number of
                     stones can be studied in context. Many of the stones were

                     removed from their original place.

                         Archaeologists are annoying about this situation.
                     They say that when artifacts are found by members of the

                     public, they must not be moved. Photos can take, but the
                     artifacts should not be pick up.
