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

Hey now, archeologists know their sex cult stuff hence "fertility object". The we dont know is usually labelled as ritual object and left at that.
