image.jpg Found these while prospecting today. They are heavy like stone, and sound like stone if you bang them together. But I lightly took my knife to one and it kinda carved like bone. We broke one and it split pretty clean and just looked like stone inside. Any help Much appreciated!!!

Some of them look vaguely like bones, but most of them don't. It's a puzzle. I have heard that when lightning strikes sand, it turns the sand to glass in weird patterns, but I don't have any personal experience with that to be able to compare to what you have there. Hope someone recognizes them, they are so unusual.

Thanks guys. If it helps at all they seem to have been unearthed at the base of a fresh landslide

Maybe fulgerites? I googled some pics and worn ones look similar to what you have.

From my experience hunting petrified wood in Arizona, they don't appear to be wood. I have also seen some sand lightning strikes and they don't look like them. Process of elimination would make me assume they are some type of petrified bones? Just my guess.

What state are you in. I found similar stuff in a creek in South Georgia along with cretaceous period dinosaur fossils.
