Artifact?

[Phantomcrystal]

I recently found this rock not far from where I lived he (about 30 miles east and a little south of Austin, Texas. Very heavy. About 30 pounds.The “handle” looks hand carved or drilled. It fits a man’s hand comfortably. What is it?

Thats an Aggie Bowling Ball; being as close as you are to UT it may be hard to see it.

Could be natural but looks an awful lot like a tractor weight like we put on the front of our pulling tractors.

That's a nice rock,just waiting for the right person to pick it up by the handle so the handle can break off and the rock goes on your foot.

nothing really looks like the stone was man made, with stone anchors and such there is usually marks around the hole that make it clear it was cut out.

interesting flat side, tho. I lived in Cedar Park, and there were limestone rocks with all kinds of shapes there..........
