[edit] Summary

Photo of a stone sphere of Costa Rica by Connor Lee. Taken in March 2004 and released under terms of the GNU FDL.

This sphere is in the rooftop courtyard of the national museum or Museo Nacional in San Jose, Costa Rica. It is part of the extensive collection of pre-Columbian artifacts at the museum. The Museo Nacional is housed in the Fuerte Bellevista, translated into English: "fort with a beautiful view." It is Castilian and was constructed in 1887. It was the scene of a major battle and still shows countless gun shot holes from the Civil War in 1948.
