Got to go out for a little while tonight and found this head 8 inches down! I have No idea who it is but I can tell you a Civil War Era Cemetery is very close to where I found this, and before anyone says anything I was in a local park where kids were playing basketball and skateboarding. I think this probably washed down the hill from the Cemetery as the Cemetery Has been vandalized many times in the past. There is a cemetery currator and I will be calling them in the next day or so to see if someone lost their head, pardon the pun.

Before then anyone have any ideas besides I am doomed for all time???

Looks pretty clean so it may have been cut by a blade but is very irregular so having it broken is also an option. The first thing I did when I found it was call the curator of the Cemetery because the place has been vandalized several times. Thought maybe someone had the other part of the statue but noone has seen anything like it.
