I found this amazingly well preserved piece in a wet, sandy area in a creek I have hunted artifacts for years. I have found the craziest things there, too, and this is one of them.

After being told it was an insulator, I did some homework. It is made with Mica and it very similar to the Arizona Beehive insulators. My questions range from why was an Arizona insulator in a Central Texas creek bed, am I even correct that this is what I think and how old would these be, or roughly??

The threading is so well preserved it could probably still be used. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks.
