I'm an electrician, and 9 to 5 isn't my norm. Here are a few pictures that were on my phone. The pictures we believe to be mammoths are on my girlfriend's phone. She will be home around 10:00 PDST, so will post them by a.m.

The red and white one is cool, I’m not seeing the mammoth, can you post more pictures?
 

Hope you don't run outta copying paper. The red and white rock is pretty, but there's not an artifact in the whole bunch.
 

Before you get upset look up portable rock art websites if you already haven’t. Look at what others post and how hard it is to see what they say it represents.
 

Rocks... Rocks... and more rocks. All natural. Sorry.
 

Sorry all natural rocks.. Good luck and keep looking
 

First, welcome to TreasureNet.

Sorry, I have to agree with the others, all are natural rocks with erosion.
 

Post is solved. Thx

Not out of the woodwork, this is artifact forum and many of us have been hunting and collecting artifacts for decades, I started in 1983 and many here have been doing so longer than I.
 

There's a learning curve involved with most collectables, and certainly Native American artifacts are no exception. The original poster just has to do the homework required to know what such artifacts look like in his neck of the woods, and learn as well how to distinguish rocks from artifacts. These are obvious rocks. That is not really our fault. Not the OP's fault either, they are just what they are, rocks. Nobody is doing anything wrong in simply pointing out the truth of the matter. I struggle to understand why stating the truth is "amazing", or why doing so would be described as "coming out of the woodwork". That's not fair to the experienced people here who are trying to help people.
 

When the original poster stated he had pictures of mammoth paintings or petroglyphs In N. California . I knew what was coming .
 

So we waited all this time for this. Just like I said, another "I see face in rocks" post.

And im sure he will call us all stupid, don't know an artifact, just can't see it, etc.
 

Just to help you out, these are California artifacts. Quite a few of these are from the Great Basin area and some from around Sacrameto. Concentrate on looking for these types and stay away from the Hardstone pieces until you learn true artifacts.

boy, you sure schooled me!
 

I've had these kicking around the shop for years. Brought 'em home because they were amusing, and I've puzzled over just how they were formed, but I never considered them artifacts, nor would I try to fool myself into believing that I'd found a Squidward or bedpan effigy. :laughing7:
