    Re: Just Rocks?

    Other than the first one I'd say yes, just rocks. That first piece could be a Capstone for a Bow Drill, but it could also be natural as well.

    I was also thinking a capstone it fits the hand perfectly whether you hold it with the right or left.

    First one is a shift knob from a 79' jeep cj5, the threads wore out and it was lost in that field when I someone was mudding. Thats why it fits the hand so well. No really probably a capstone as srv said. Really stuff like that which could be natural or not, I look at where it was found. Looks like plow damage so if there were arrowheads found there then about any rock theare could have been used by ancient people or at least brought to the field by them.

    Just curious, what exactly do you see in the 3rd piece that tells you it's an artifact? I don't see any evidence whatsoever of it ever being altered by man which would make it an artifact. All I see is a triangle shaped natural stone.
