Need help identifying this very heavy and large Jndian artifact. Purchased home in Utah and found in the garden today. Not sure where it came from. It has been there a long time. Please help me identify it. image.jpeg

It a natural formation and erosion of a rock. Just a rock, but a nice rock.

You have quite the imagination to see Eagle eating a serpent ... Unless it's a really bad photo I'm only seeing natural rock as well

Very cool looking stone, and yes I see something that resembles what you are describing, but it is 100% natural and formed by years of erosion and not by the hand of man.

All I see is a sleeping swan if we want to look hard enough.

I have to along with the 95% of folks and say it's natural, but it's a cool stone. Any type of effigy or rock craving by NA is spot on has to what it is and that it was made by man.
