you have a question?

sorry lol - do these look like tools? in my previous post I posted multiple photos of what looks like the bell pestle. someone asked if it was found near other artifacts and, well, these other pieces were around there too. What do you think? They all have the same colors and fit beautifully in the hand. What do you think?

the one in the middle looks interesting....them being the same color could mean a couple of things, they were found at the same place and time having weathered and patinated the same, and are just rocks of the same kind of rocks, or they are all tools having been...as i said....found at the same time etc.

MH it would help if we could see what would have been the end of use, so has to make a call. If any tool was used at all it will have a sign of wear. Other than that it just a guess and please don't take this the wrong way, but that (it fits in the hand)quote just don't hold much water always. I can show you 1,000s of stones that fit in the hand ,but they were never a tool.

Without more pics on them Im saying natural creek rocks. You can always prove me wrong though.
