The reading passage presents three reasons why vessels had found were not likely to be used as electricity batteries in ancient times, but the lecturer poses some evidences against those reasons mentioned in the reading.
To begin with, the reading suggests the first reason that the vessels had not been attached to some electricity conductors like metal wires, but the lecturer holds that those vessels were discovered by the local people. Therefore, those conductors like metal wires may be overlooked or thrown away by the local people.
In addition, the reading purposes the second reason that the copper cylinders may have a similar function as the copper cylinders from Seleucia, which was not used for generating electricity, because both of them look as the same. However, the lecturer argues that similar look cannot prove anything. The original design may be as same as the copper cylinders from Seleucia, but the vessels adapted to another function of producing electricity with adding iron and liquid inside.
Finally, it is said in the reading that the function of battery seems to be useless because of no device relying on electricity. On the contrary, it is pointed out in lecture that they can use those batteries as a supernatural power for convincing other with a magical ability or for healing like stimulating the muscle and easing the pain.
