Recently, however, 4,500-year-old stone agriculturalimplements were unearthed at Colha.These implements resemble Mayan stoneimplements of a much later period, alsofound at Colha. Moreover, the implements' designs are strikingly different from the designs of stone implementsproduced by other cultures known to haveinhabited the area in prehistorictimes. Therefore, there were surely Mayan settlements in Colha 4,500 years ago. Which of the following, if true, most seriouslyweakens the argument?
(A)Ceramic ware is not known tohave been used by theMayan people to make agriculturalimplements. (B)Carbon-dating of corn pollen in Colhaindicates that agriculture began therearound 4,500 years ago. (C)Archaeological evidence indicates thatsome of the oldest stoneimplements found at Colha wereused to cut away vegetation after controlled burning oftrees to open areas ofswampland for cultivation. (0) Successor cultures at a given site often adopt the style of agricultural implements used by earlier inhabitants of thesame site. (E) Many religious and socialinstitutions of the Mayan peoplewho inhabitedColha 3,000 years ago relied on a highly developed systemof agriculturalsymbols.
