　　Argument：

　　Collectors prize the ancient life-size claystatues of human figures made on Kali Island but have long wondered howKalinese artists were able to depict bodies with such realistic precision.Since archaeologists have recently discovered molds of human heads and hands onKali, we can now conclude that the ancient Kalinese artists used molds ofactual bodies, not sculpting tools and techniques, to create these statues.This discovery explains why Kalinese miniature statues were abstract andentirely different in style: molds could be used only for life-size sculptures.It also explains why few ancient Kalinese sculpting tools have been found. Inlight of this discovery, collectors predict that the life-size sculptures willdecrease in value while the miniatures increase in value.
