What is This?

[banjodave]

My sister sent me this photo of a rock she came across in Hot Springs, Arkansas. The guy that showed it to her said he found it (both pieces) while arrowhead hunting. That's all I know about it. I can't say what the other side is like. My question is what in the world could this have been used for? Any ideas what it is?

I have no idea but it is an awesome piece. Someone will ID it shortly, I'm sure. There are some smart folks on this board.

yeah i would say geofact, if they put that pit in it, it would be smooth as silk with no bumbs in it

The thing is though, is it the very rare Schwinn model or the more common Huffy?

I vote natural rock too. Mother Nature can do some funky things to stone with a few million years or erosion.

I'm glad you folks are having such a good time with my serious question.

dave.... we need more pics and any MORE possible history on this! It does look really cool, and mother nature produces a gabillion "looks like it could be somethings". We really have no ideas what it could be, so comments are/can be made to BUMP your post to the top so more people can look at it, or it will get lost at the bottom! Thanks! Ohioaxeman

All kidding aside...looks like a geofact.
