Stone Balls: Costa Rica
This huge stone ball has been found in the region of Costa Rica ages ago. Although many was found originally, there is only a handful left of these stone balls.
“Hundreds of stone balls have been documented in Costa Rica, ranging in size from a few centimeters to over two meters in diameter. Almost all of them are made of granodiorite, a hard, igneous stone. These objects are not natural in origin, unlike the stone balls in Jalisco, Mexico that were described in a 1965 National Geographic article. Rather, they are monolithic sculptures made by human hands.”
The history of these stone balls and why they made them are still a mystery. For those who travel to Costa Rica, this is a must see attraction.
