A stone head statue/ artwork? This would be amazing.

Artisans take items from nature as rocks and wood that they see a figure as your first photo, and paint eyes, feathers, details on them to make them look more real. Welcome to TN and even though the rocks look like something there still rocks.

Interesting...I gave a different sample (except one item as a control) to a different forum and the consensus (by two experts) was that the control item was definitely human carved.

Some of you guys would be blown away with the actual artifacts you can find around here in Arizona.

I'm not surprised. I'm sure you can get votes for Templar symbols and Alien artifacts as well.

Rocks.

For some reason I can't delete my pictures. Anyhow, I deleted the text.
Regardless of any regular rocks, I find it increasingly hard to believe the two on right aren't stone heads... Middle one is still in ground, about to be lifted up.
1109171140a.jpg I mislabeled it in earlier post. There was a much larger 100 pound chunk of looked to me as marble that was on top of it and probably was used as the source block.
The long nose rock/statue appears to be looking up (and NE) from the side of hill it's on.

Hello Jason Smith, I am from Denmark. We have a lot of stone age artifacts found here. I am a member of a metal detecting site here as well, my fellow detectorist in Denmark would never put such rocks up on the forum, it is simple. If in doubt use Google, type the search phrase, and see what comes up. You don't seem to want to hear what the very knowledgeable people on this site, is trying to tell you. Most of us are not interested in folklore or conspiracy theories, as to who made faces of rocks. I'm stumped on how many Americans believe in these kind of things. I'm not trying to be an ass, but use your common sense.

I can't seem to find any American Indian head stones via Google search. I'm not sure how long American Indians were here, but could someone provide a sampling of American Indian head stone/statue work? I sincerely can't find it through Google. Thank you for your time, I really appreciate it. Surely American Indians were here long enough to create some head rock type carvings in quite some abundance.

Jason,
Could you draw outlines on you pictures to show us more of what you see?
I'm having a real hard time seeing heads or anything more than rocks.
