I have seen some jellyfish fossils in squares. Under 10x magnification, it doesn't appear to be man-made the way it is eroded.

Please share some pictures or information of jellyfish fossils in squares. That would be amazing to read about or see!

Can anyone tell me what this is? I found this in a river bed in Arkansas

Unfortunately, your compelling stone does not resemble box work structures.

Use Google.

Each of your stone’s squares/rectangles demonstrate symmetrical framing in layers, not present in the box work structures shared above

Definitely worth bringing home, whatever it may be.

Great theory, Tdog. Thanks for the information. Best logical resemblance yet.

Found within the same state possibly closer, and as shown with the iron concretion triangles it is possible for Mother Nature to repeat shapes, I think it’s quite likely a box work structure that is maybe a bit unusually symmetrical.

From what I’m seeing box work, iron concretion, septarian… it’s all a similar process with differential weathering causing the shapes

Is this an example? Also found in NWA by a neighbor.

Looks like a piece from an aztec carved stone. Could be incan but Aztecs were closer to Arkansas: google images of aztec carvings and youll see what i mean.
Great find!
Good luck!
