Please delete this article. The science was settled long ago.
There is no room for disinformation like this. We know what we know and that is it!

Of course these were made for practical everyday uses.
Ancient people didn’t have time to make objects for ‘ceremonial’ use, they were to busy trying to SURVIVE...................

I was thinking the same thing. Metals were far too valuable for there to be that many status/ceremonial items.

Sure... ancient humans fighting the elements, starvation and wild predators had the time and energy to make ‘ceremonial’ weapons???
