Ok got it. I was told the one rock had a face on it. I just thought the shape was different portable rock art web site people mentioned a face. I also have this other rock it has a perfect point. Not like a arrow head or anything but pointy nonetheless. I think it is rock art it kinda looks like a puffer fish. Does this one look natural to you?
Yes. Just a natural rock. It is not art, not made or worked by humans. It might be portable, but it's just a portable rock. Nothing more.
Yes most definitely the best! Thank you.
I lost mom and dad 6 months apart in 2023, retired from life long job 35 years in sept 2023, left about 200 great people. Nov, 2023 hip replacement. February 1st 2024 started metal detecting in between frozen patches of earth. Turns out metal detecting saved me mentally and physically . It really helped me not dwell on loss. It was my mom that instilled the bottle picking and the star gazing. If she only knew all the goodies I have found ...keep going CD , they are all smiling on us.
So true I even think they are still with us whenever we need them! God is real to me!
Sorry for your loss.
I think i see a horseshoe nail
That’s what I thought. Cool thinking!
Learn the difference between a percussion fracture and differential weathering . Study that and watch some flint knapping videos . Very useful.
Will do!
Here is my first rock that got me going !
crazy what gets ya! My wife is always calling me over “hey check out this rock” she loves all of the rocks I find fancy in a few of them. We are definitely bit by some kind of bug. We are finding are eyes glued to the ground even dreaming of finding interesting things!
I picked it up because j thought I could make a cool primitive fake axe out of it. Had it for three years i had NO clue about artifacts but it was a cool rock. Turns out I found six more . Local archeologist verified they were soap stone netsinkers possibly covered in pine tar resin . My point is keep going and you will develop an eye as you learn. Great for the brain !!
That's awesome thank you I saved a copy. We find stones like that frequently on Lake Ontario shores. They don't always have a face but all those pits and dimples are familiar to me. Great reference picture.
Holy crap! I can only kinda see what they were talking about. It has some markings on it I’m just a bad photographer. Got another picture for you. Obsidian?
Someone will tell you. I think Obsidian is constant . That looks like a fire glazed rock. Only surface is fried. Inside should be gloss black I think.
Ok we found this with a metal detector. It is slightly magnetic with a strong magnet!
The rabbit hole of the meteorite is one you will need to go down once or twice too.
lol! What?
