The lecturer argues that none of the explanations about the origin of forts built with vitrified stones have been confirmed. This contradicts the reading passage’s claim that a few attempts have been made to explain the origin of these forts with their distinctive stonework. First, the lecturer argues that an idea which says that signal fires are the cause of the virtified vitrified stones found at these sites don’t do not match with what we know about the forts. Signal fires were lit in one or two places on the walls, and these spots were not changed over time. Therefore, heat from signal fires woukd would affect only a few areas, but the entire upper surfaces of the walls were virtified vitrified. This casts doubt on the reading passage’s claim that it is possible that virtification vitrification was caused by signal fires. Next, the lecturer claims that the theory of the lightning being responsible for the virtification vitrification process is also problematic. Dozens of individual lightning strikes would have been required for extensive virtification vitrification to occur. Also, the fact that the walls are cracked can easily be attributed to normal wear and tear. These forts are incredibly old, so it is not surprising that they are in poor condition. This counters the reading passage’s claim that lightning is another plausible explanation for how the stones at these sites were virtified vitrified. Finally, the lecturer points out that it is highly unlikely that the forts were built using stones that had been exposed to lava previously. There is no evidence of past volcaninc activity near any of these sites which means the builders would have had to teansport transport the clumps of melted stone over vast distances. However, people from this period typically usedmlocal used local materials for construction because lack of roads made it almost impossible to move large quantities of heacy heavy materials over great distances. This refutes the reading passage’s claim that forts were built using volcanic rocks.
