Near the town of Zavidovici, the huge sphere - the largest of a group of such objects - protrudes partially from the ground. According to the archaeologist Sam Semir Osmanagich, who discovered the stone in March, it may have a very high iron content and weigh over 30 tons.
"It could be the largest stone ball in the world," Osmanagich tells a group that has gathered at the object in the Bosnian forest, as can be seen in the following video.
