Probably not but clear pictures taken in natural light might help the ID.

Their interesting for sure but, I would say they are natural rocks as well. Keep looking theres plenty of artifacts out there waiting to be discovered. Good luck.

Welcome to TNet Mitzib. After looking through several Georgia artifact sites I do see very similar artifacts to what you have posted. Especially the rock with the 3 circle depressions. Many rock art sites found in Georgia show these circles carved on almost everything...Not sure why but it looks like your circles. Sounds strange. I would take these rocks to the Archeology dept. at the Univ. of Georgia or email them better pics or check out this site for authenticating your finds

Hi Mitzi,

As others have said, your rocks are natural rocks that were shaped by water erosion. The term for them is "geofact." Had they been man-made, you would be able to clearly see tool marks and peck marks. Although not made by Native Americans, they are definitely natural wonders.

Thank you. I think they are cool.

Personally I think more pictures from different angles would help. Some artifacts do not have tooling marks.
