artifact
The main topic of both the reading and the lecture is carved stones which were found at a number of places in Scotland.
The article states that archeologists do not have an agreement about the purposes and meanings of these artifacts, and it provides three discriminating theory for making clear the reason for their use. However, in the lecture, the professor refutes the idea presented in the passage by giving examples and clarifying the weaknesses that the idea has. She says that these theories are unconvincing.
First, the passage posits that these carved stones are used as a weapon in hunting or fighting. In contrast, the professor rejects this point by saying that past weapons had weird signs, whereas this stone had a simple sign. Additionally, in her opinion, most of the past potteries had a crack, hollow or broken part, and a hollow can't be a convincing reason for the theory.
Second, the reading says that maybe stone balls were utilized as a system of calculating the weight of things. Nevertheless, the lecturer denies this, suggesting that these carved stones don't have a uniform size. Moreover, they made from various materials like sand and grind. In addition, they have different density: which means two same size particles have different weights.
Third, according to the article's other hypothesis, they have been used for social purposes, not practical reasons. The speaker doesn't agree with this point of view. She asserts that using these artifacts as social purposes is unlikely. She explains that most of the social signs have an intricate pattern, while carved ballons are simple. She used another evidence for approving her opinion: these signs were used for identifying people's position or ranking and therefore pottery was using just by important persons. On the other hand, No one found this type of artifact near the gravies, and lack of this stuffs close those places shows that they were not a social clue.
In conclusion, the points made in the lecture contradicts the central standpoint of the reading. Having decrepit and erosion effects on the ancient things, being ununiform, and having a simple pattern with no evidence of this stuffs adjacent to the graves which mentioned in the lecture clearly demonstrate that the reading opinion about carved stones is in doubt.
