Chunkee stones and tool with hole

[Essex]

I know these gaming stones to be chunkee stones, but I need help identifying the stone with the hole in it. Baking stone?

Not sure what it is but has a nice drill pattern going thru it

I woud call the first two dimpled hammerstones. Don't know whathe other one is but, I agree, it was drilled. Cool Finds!

The large piece could be a anchor, the other two are dimple hammer stone's and I'm going to throw this out there. JMO but I think the pit in them has something to do with rounding the end of antler billets.

The stone with hole is most likely steatite or soap stone and if it is steatite it holds heat a long time when placed in a liquid to boil or cook it. we call them boiling stones.

I agree that the drilled piece is a boiling stone, seems to have been blackened by fire, hole for poking a stick through for easy retrieval.

I was going to say canoe weight but if it is soapstone the a fire pit stone for cooking would be more likely
