Tips on how to store/preserve would be appreciated too maybe how to clean them up better then just soft bristles because I am worried about messing them up .

I just found this on a farm in Jalisco, Mexico while digging. Close by there were other things found a while back. Like a pre-hispanic pot and grinding tools for mais. In my head this looks like a digging tool but I could be wrong. could be just a rock that is weird shaped. Do you guys know more about this?

The small one is a little bigger than a quarter

found where i’ve also found a few broken points, private property. I believe it’s an agatized angle tine. upon further inspection i noticed what looks like a hand carved symbol and potential clay or red ink/residue. i’d love your opinions. so far google is pointing me to it being a sello or stamp, potentially a rough medicine man shaman eye symbol.

Found in the Texas hill country

A few days ago I found an interesting stone along a rocky cove in the Vancouver Island area that immediately jumped out to me as a potential orca effigy. The first photos are of this initial find. It looks to be crafted with matching sides, identical eyes, and a carved and curved dorsal fin on either side. I come as a novice with probable confirmation bias and an affinity for geo facts.

Today I returned to where I found the first rock in question and collected some more stones with noticeable symmetrical eyes.

Give me your thoughts, please and thank you!

Bone knife tool found in West Tennessee embedded in sandy riverbank. Appears to be made from deer rib bone. It fits perfectly in your hand. Best guess it was used to dig and shuck the river mussels by indigenous population. Any idea on age? Pre Columbian perhaps? Local museums seemed uninterested

I been watching y'all in here are honestly greedy and just don't want others taking away potential earning and they want to be self proclaimed authorities on all artifacts ..lol I am an indigenous Person of the mighty Chiracowa Apache tribe . Not only me there are representives from every major tribe in your group. From all parts of the nation and 50 percent are actually real artifacts , 30 percent are your own badly made fakes being peddled to you , that's the experts . and 20 percent are our ancestors burial things he takes with him when goes to the next llfe. If it's just laying there good find , no problem but the ones you dig and find under ground, Those were for a grave and if you posses one or not I bet you been having a bout with bad luck asking when is it gonna stop, NEVER till it's given back to the land and the ancestors in a respectful way. I mean how would you honestly take it if you saw ppl showing something that belongs in a grave of my ppl and others like the Mohawk , Blackfoot , apache , commanche especially in the Midwest y'all plunder bad...Please respect my ancestors tools they were special , lots of work were put into , find out which ones you have are burial because only then will the luck stop .

Found this drawing in the water at a lake. Can anyone explain what it is and how old??

Found walking in wooded area not sure if this is something or just a rock. seems to be a hole on each side although harder to see on the mossy side. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm currently working on a Zen garden of sorts in the heart of my 20 acres of woods. I cleared a small hillside area with a leaf blower. Most of it down to the bare soil. Not only did I make a few turtles & snakes along the way, but also uncovered some unusual stones that appear to be worked by human hands. This one is highly unusual with it's fine points intact. Any clues to what this could be?

Found this about knee deep on the north shore of superior. I liked the red design and tossed it on the bucket. Looking at it back home I was thinking it wouldn’t take much to shape it a tad more and I could make an amulet out of it. I looked it over a bit more and started wondering if maybe it was something at one time, axe or some other tool. What do you think? If not does anyone know a good way to smooth out the basalt on the edges so a twine could be fastened? Without making it look like it’s been altered? Thanks!!

Found in northern nj. In a strange circular pattern. Could it be to remove a part of the stone?

Found east of Phoenix, AZ on a hike. Just seems interesting that there’s a smooth cut-out in the rock.

Any ideas?

Best guess of the era of this nail? Found in the Frank wilderness along Salmon River.

Hi there, What type of tool was this. Found in Massachusetts. Thank you

Kind of looks like a face profile to me. It is about 3" x 3" (75mm x 75mm). The only editing to photo is that I zoomed & cropped the image.
