Assortment of over three hundred precolumbian petrospheres in Costa Rica

The stone spheres of Costa Rica are an assortment of over 300 petrospheres in Costa Rica, on the Diquís Delta and on Isla del Caño. Locally, they are also known as bolas de piedra. The spheres are commonly attributed to the extinct Diquís culture, and they are sometimes referred to as the Diquís spheres. They are the best-known stone sculptures of the Isthmo-Colombian area.
