From the page: The first formal report of the stone spheres appeared in his published paper, "Archaeology of the Dilquis Delta, Costa Rica 1963." Since then, archaeologists have been perplexed by the stones. Thousands have now been found. Some are as small as four inches -- about the size of a baseball -- while others are a massive eight feet in diameter. Estimates of their age goes back some 1,600 years, yet no one can be sure how they were made, by whom, or why. The spherical stones certainly took a long time to make. The age of these stones places them at a time when no iron tools were known to exist in that region, meaning the spheres were somehow formed by stone implements. Yet no stone tools of this era and geographic area have been found.

I've seen other info on these on a History Channel program. What an enigma! So many mysteries in this world!

The Stone Spheres of Costa Rica Explanation, please. Preposterous acceptable, but plausible preferred.

Discoveries of stone spheres in Costa Rica have raised thoughts of ancient civilisations, Atlantis and visitors from Outer Space. Whatever the case, this makes fascinating reading.
