Nice Mortar. Fun to find them. I find most of mine in the mtns. Thanks for the look and congratulations.

That is a pretty nice one it will make a nice display piece.
 
nice , ive found the grind stones but never the mano
 
I was digging and screening a couple of years ago, and I dug up a metate grinding stone reached down in the hole to take it out, and when I turned it over the mano was right underneath it. I guess that was the way it had been left when it was last used no telling how long ago.
 
Very, very nice.

I found one very similar along the banks of the Reedy River.
South Carolina found pieces.
