Now I know yall think some of these are just rocks but some of these looked even more like just rocks when I first found them. The first 2 pictures i posted the other day and I didnt post the third but thats the view going down the side. To me it looks like a skull then on the reverse im guessing live human. I have seen similar objects like it before. The last 3 are also 2 I posted the other day but again same thing im learning though haha but im guessing its an owl. I didnt find them all in the same place but in all the places i found them pottery pieces were among them. dont worry though all pottery pieces and suspicious objects are all seperated and labeled with the area i found them in. Im a land surveyor so I get to go to many different places everyday and one day my wish is to go to school to be an archeological surveyor. many thanks for the repleys, help, and hospitality!

Dont let pareidolia distract you, it's your imagination and pareidolia causing you to see shapes. They are natural stones.

Pareidolia is the psychological phenomenon where people perceive recognizable patterns, often faces, in random or ambiguous stimuli. It's the tendency to see something meaningful, like a face in a cloud, a picture in an inkblot

Ive heard of it before haha but the material, symmetrical lines, context, and similarity of depictions is what I look for but that doesnt mean i havent sat there and slowley brushed a piece of kitty dirt (dolamite) for 5 hrs either haha
 
some more curiosities

Pictures 10-15 are pieces of pottery, the rest look like natural rocks; Pictures 2&3 looks like berries or a type of nut from a tree.

not berries for sure lol they are solid and all have two holes on both sides. I was looking for a property corner and as I was digging I notice that they were the same color little stones took them home and brushed them and notice the pin-sized holes on each sides. Im guessing and assuming they are some type of bead. Found in Jefferson county close to the Rococo boat landing off sunray rd,
