Is this a man made stone skull/face carving or just nature

[Mitchcl640]

I found a chunk of sandstone on our family farm in Western Kansas along a river bank. to me it looks like a skull on top and on the bottom some kind of bird figure maybe?? There was an archaeological dig done on the same chunk of land and an ancient campsite from the Upper Republic tribe dated around 1200-1400 A.D. so I know there are still plenty of artifacts to be found. I measured everything i possibly could and everything has precise measurements which leads me to believe its man made. And also if the base of the skull looks square and each side again measured the same. I am new to this forum so I am not sure if my pictures downloaded or not. If not can someone tell me how to load them from the computer cuz thats what I just did and it just showed Attatchment formula

Welcome to tnet!

Your item is a natural rock. It has no significance to a North American artifact. But keep trying.

Thanks. I figured it was to good to be true but I just kept staring at it thinking damn that looks just like a skull. But I have a wild imagination. So i just did basic research and never realized that Native American Portable Art was a thing. I looked at images and have no idea how they can tell on some of those things cuz they just look like rocks to me.

These are just some of the artifacts found at the Archaeological dig I mentioned above that are now at the Kansas Historical Society. I just thought I'd share.

Disappointing true, but there millions of artifacts still to be found. You will,find at least one of them if you keep hunting.

Just a rock, but man sounds like you have a cool place to look over. Good eye for spotting that.
