Thanks.

Btw its smooth all over, even the base. Looks kinda pecked but its not rough at all.
Thanks.

Maybe some type of hide scraper or to get the fat off the hide. I have something similar but like you say I picked it up cause it was unusal.

I believe that's a PPF Molly.






















That would be a Petrified Platypus Foot. lol

Seriously though, I'm sure it's just a natural rock, but it is a very cool looking piece.
 
You know me Molly, I would have brought that home from the creek, let alone from a Indian site in a farm field. :thumbsup: That thing could of had several use's.
 
I'm so glad I'm not the only one bringing home suspicious? looking stones. ::)
Thanks for the comments friends, least i don't feel so bad now (or stupid) .. ;D

Lmao Steve. How did I know you were going to say that.. :icon_scratch: :D :D

This was my first thought as soon as I seen it!
 
Some indian probably picked that up and brought it home for the same reason you did, because it looks cool.

could be a bopper? depends on what it was found with.

Can you explain Archaeon, what's a bopper? because where I am from a bopper is something you hit (bop) ppl with.. :D

Thanks for the comments guy.

Molly. :)
 
I wonder if he's refering to the Big Bopper, who we all know had roots in the beginnings of "Rock". lol

;D

Goes to show what I mean when I speak of the context in which it was found.
It's prolly natural, but I'm sure that the natives had it. It would be intresting to find out where the nearest deposite of that type of stone is to you.
BTW, I woulda kept it too dear. :)
 
Molly, a "bopper" is a tool used to take flakes off a spall, to thin it down to preform shape, they are called billets also...
 
Could be a Celt.

I've seen a few that looked similar.
 
A stone wedge that's textured on the bottom, that's easy.

It's a door stop. :icon_jokercolor:

Oh I see, Thankyou for educating me. I will try this stone out, just to see what the rock looks like after I bop it.

Thanks guys. :)
 
Shawn I will keep it. It's pretty obvious that Indians picked up natural stone too, just like we do. Also
the context of which it was found. I haven't seen any stones quiet like this material before..

Thanks for the info.

Molly.
