Ya reckon this is just another rock? Found inland away from any tributaries.

It is very smooth and measures right at 2 3/4 inch at the widest point .. shaped sorta like a clam shell, with a very pronounce taper.

It looks interesting, I find so many rocks that look like they were ancient tools and etc, I never know for sure and haven't had much luck when I post them on here. I couldn't resist a little humor though...

.. Yeah .. I was a little hesitant about posting it for that very reason, but thought it would be worth a shot. As it turned out, it was good for a laugh, so I won! Thanks!

Don't know anything about it but, like you, I would have picked it up too.

Cool looking rock! I would have snagged it too...

It's cracks intrigue me- perhaps heated in a fire pit? My thoughts are if it were hewn from rock into a tool that there would be visible signs of shaping such as jagged edges. Finding it in the woods makes me think that it probably hasn't eroded too much so any signs would remain. I drive bias for a living so whatta I know? Lol
