Just because you can find others who are making the exact same mistake you are does not mean that you are somehow correct. You just need to learn to distinguish natural from man made, or worked by man. So far, you just don't seem to be trying hard. The answer is not: you have been right all along, and the people trying to help you out on this forum have all been wrong. Nope, that is just not the case at all. You just need to learn. To facilitate that, you need to give up the effort to convince people that natural geofacts or nature made effigies are any more then just that, natural. You're mistaken, accept that fact, and begin to learn. The next step is yours. At the moment, you're fighting against the tide, which won't help you at all, IMHO......

Tammy, here's a fact you can take to the bank. Native Americans could craft an image in stone as well as any other culture in human history/ prehistory. They were no less artists then the artists of any other time and place.

From this, a certain rule of thumb develops. If you have to guess, if you have to ask at all if a stone is a man made image or a natural image, then the odds are overwhelming that the image is in fact natural. You won't have to squint, use certain lighting, and most important, you won't even have to think about it. Any more then you would ask if a statue carved by Michelangelo was a trick of nature.

With these thoughts in mind, here's a little froggy lookin at ya. Now, honestly, do you even have to ask if this is a trick of Mother Nature?

Do you have to ask if this is man made or nature made?

Although it's not your intention, the rocks you're suggesting were fashioned by prehistoric Native Americans is actually insulting to their artistic abilities.....

I'll never understand why some folks insist they know more then people with decades of experience. And when presented with that fact, they just ignore all suggestions and carry on. The stubborn insistence that they have absolutely nothing to learn just baffles me. Why bother even asking, if, one, you're convinced you already know the answer, and two, you have no intention of even trying to learn? What a waste of time trying to help you......

Now Tammy Lee... that's just plain nasty.

I think the problem you're finding here, is that there's a fine line Between Tammy Lee, and Spammy Lee.

If you post hundreds of times saying Is this a rock? Is this a rock? Is this a rock?... it kinda fills up the board with the same question over and over and over.

Maybe you could get a book from the library, that teaches you a little about native American artifacts.

Tammy, you are entitled to believe what you like. When you ask the opinions of others, you get exactly that. Your last post on this thread would, in many forums I participate in, result in an immediate ban.

Please understand that getting angry will not change the opinions of others. Especially those of considerably more experience. I would suggest that you join, or at least attend meetings of, a local rock or lapidary club. Also please consider taking you "artifacts" to a university department or a museum that has staff that are familiar with such things.
