In archaeology, a stone ball or petrosphere is the name for any spherical man-made object of any size that is composed of stone.

Several classes of petrospheres exist, such as: the stone spheres of Costa Rica,
painted pebbles from Scotland,
stone charms from Scotland and sandstone balls from such sites as Traprain Law,
the carved stone
