    Archeologists when we’re ancient:

    “Wtf is these?”

    “I dunno but I bet my mum could knit a glove with it”

      It’ll take them a single step on them to understand these were used in wars. That they are no longer used because they were probably banned for human rights violations.

      Btw my favorite theory is that they are some kind of dice for a game. The little nubbins on the corners would help them bounce around better.

        I always assumed they were for a game. Why have a different face on most of the sides if they werent some sort of dice like game piece?

        Honestly though I’m glad archeologists went with “mittens” rather than their old standby “human sacrificing sex cult worship”.

        Edit: fuck spelling is hard
