Welcome to tnet!

Your item is not an North American Indian artifact. It is a naturally shaped rock. You might be more successful in finding some artifacts if you dig a little further deeper, especially near and along the front of the cave. Also digging further inside may produce some artifacts.

Thanks for the input, but I beg to differ on this one...

I've been collecting for 40+ years now. Farm here sits on Limestone shelves. I kick around cobble in creeks daily and have acres of natural worn and shaped and weathered and cold split rock here.

This one is different. Deliberate. Not a water shaped piece.

For now, it'll go with the other artifacts and points and scrapers etc here :-)

Hey sorry but that's not an artifact it's just a rock nothing more it probably fell from the roof of the cave!

I would also say shear fracture. Nature can do strange things, still an interesting piece!
