These are 2 pieces I came across when first getting into artifact hunting. They were posted before, but with other artifacts as "what is it".
This is one of the first stones I picked up thinking it might be an artifact. Haven't seen anything similar to this before, but it really looks to be a multi-tool.
My reasoning- The groove is a worn groove not a tractor mark. There are tractor marks on it, one going across the groove, shaft smoother?. The other part looks like 2 breaks, but you can see the 2 straight lines in the breaks. Those lines go well below where the fracture would be from the break, i tried taking a side view showing the line depth, sharpener?. Also seems there was something over the top side of this stone and not the bottom.
This other stone is a piece of quartz. I find all kinds of quarts field walking, but never smooth and round like this.
No way of telling if its native or not, but sure seems it was smoothed by a person.
Thanks for looking!
