Every now and then you see anthropologists admitting that "ritual object" is just their way of saying they have no idea what it's for Some of the Moai of Rapa Nui (aka the giant stone heads on Easter Island) used to have eyes. The fragments of the whites of the eyes - almond-shaped white stones with a central hole - were misidentified as "ritual bowls" for decades. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moai#Eyes |
