So... It definitely feels like soapstone (soft and talc-ee), which would fit this area, with all the quarries. Texture seems a little unusual, but I have no idea how soapstone wears- especially over long periods of time, tossing around in multiple river floods. I pulled this from the muddy-clay side of a creekbank through the forest and down the crease from the field where I've recently found artifacts. I just got a couple pics this past week- the piece itself is on the farm. I'm letting them keep it. But I honestly don't know. The rim is flat and level, and the bottom is flat enough that it 'sits' well, even broken as it is. What do you think? I can take more pics on Wed. if anyone wants more. Thanks for looking! Yakker

Met up with this VERY large and scary spider- and nearly put my hand right on (her?) as I was clamering over the creek-side rocks (AAAaaaaaack!)
