I saw a video about these recently. Some think they may have been a kind of throwing weapon, but nobody really knows. Many of them aren’t made in a way that a rope or string could be fitted around them.

Wrap some rope around one and sling it and the archaeologist who gets hit with it will realize real quick what they were used for.

My first thought? Carved projectiles for a catapult.

Papyrus weights....They appear to have one flat side.

This would put a hurt on someone. A stone throwing star.

Early golf ball prototypes. Took them a while to figure it out.

Nephilim balls. Makes perfect sense. :-)
To: BBell
Easy...
They were AMMO.
And bored military guys carved them into neat shapes.

Wonder if they could have been used as weights for something in the stone age household...
