TPO 05_ Integrated Writing

The reading passage contends that the large houses in New Mexico could have been used living, storing food, or ceremonies. The lecturer, however, refutes the arguments presented in the reading passage due to the following reasons:

First, it's not possible to assume that many people lived in the houses inasmuch as the number of fireplaces is far less than the number of rooms. For example, in one of the biggest houses, only 10 fireplaces are found, while there are 100 rooms in the house. So the houses couldn't have been used by many residents. This contradicts the reading authors' points of view that the houses were residential.

Second, the houses couldn't have been places to store food. If the places were used for storing grain maize, at least some traces of grain maize or containers must have been found, while the excavations disprove this. As a result, there is another contradiction between the reading and the lecture.

Third, broken pots found by archeologists are not good reasons to support that the houses were used for ceremonies. In addition to broken pots, excavators have found other materials such as construction tools; this could implicate that both the construction tools and the broken pots have been the trash of constructors of the buildings. This is another point in the reading that the lecturer disagrees with.

To sum up, the lecturer provides compelling evidence to disprove the arguments of the reading passage.
