    Re: what would these be for?

    the white ones are so polished that i was thinking they could possibly have been ornaments
    frank the reason i say this is that they are so ground and polished it seems that it would be almost impossible to get them to be useful as a tool, but who knows
    you could be right

    I don't have much to go on for size / scale, they look to me like body jewelry for piercings. Not to un like what the kids have been doing to themselves here lately. If you ever watch Apocalypto, look at the piece in the Bad A-- slave hunters chin. Not sure like a said about size but the intricacy looks like precious items. Fantastic artifacts. Thanks for the show Steve !
