more photos of pecked tool

[dognose]

its not clear what this may had been destined for. its not really anywhere close to a discoidal form. maybe another pecking stone. its made of granite. pecked over 100% of the surface only interrupted by plow strikes on both sides.

it's not a natural formed stone, like one may see in pumice or the like. another local relic collector has agreed after checking it out.

I don't know about that one, it looks pretty natural to me.

It is difficult to say, but those are some awfully deep “pecks” to have been made especially with prehistoric tools.

Now one side looks flattened off, maybe it was a Mano. I don’t think it’s been pecked though.

After all the artifacts this gentleman has posted on here how could you doubt his in hand assessment.

They are just our opinions, I hope I'm wrong.

It’s not pecking. It’s exfoliation. The matrix holding the crystals in place is breaking down and the stone is starting to come apart. The Indians looked for igneous rocks like this that were even farther along and crushed them to mix with clay for their pottery.
