520 |a Rounded disks, commonly made from potsherds and pierced with two spaced holes, have been referred to as "buttons" in most archaeological reports, although their function remained a mystery. These perforated disks were actually simple toys that appeared by the beginning of the second millennium B. C., if not earlier, in Israel and the Indus Valley.

They may prove to be a universal toy through time and space.
