Hello, My fiancé and I were hunting for meteorite fragments and found this very unique 'artifact' at her family ranch in Starr County, Texas. I have no idea what it is and want help identifying it. A very uneducated guess is that it may be a dinosaur egg with ancient carvings - total guess. The lines around the 'eye' are raised.. not carved in. Apologies if I am using incorrect terminology. I just want help in my quest to identify it. There were quite a few arrowheads found near this 'artifact' as well. Any ideas or suggestions welcome in helping identify this! Thank you

We own a small cattle ranch in Grant County New Mexico and I find so many enigmatic rocks here and this is my first post here on this or any other forum so apologies in advance if I am making errors and will make efforts to read all the new member material in hopes I do not for future posts. Excited to learn and thank you.

I found this peculiar looking formation while rock hunting. It was wearing a coat of minerals and resembled all the other rocks in the area, however, the shape was slightly different than all the other rocks so I picked it up and brought it home. I used a bench grinder on one side to see if maybe it was gold ore. Once I held it on the grinder for a small amount of time, I realized it wasn't any rock I've seen here in Washington state . I've been using a soft but some brush on it, removing the black that's between what appears to be bones. I'm not sure really what it is. It's been quite a conversation piece among myself and my company friends and coworkers. I do hope it's a fossil of course, an egg pot will be really cool. However if it's not, I'm very sorry for wasting your time, and I do appreciate you reading this and helping me figure out what it is. I was referred to you by Google lens just to let you know, and thank you.

This is not my field of expertise. I chipped this out of a rock found on the surface in my yard. Texas gulf coast. This appears to me to be a fossilized near term embryo of a sea turtle. The matrix has reminants of other fossilized embryos (guess based on size and feature) all compacted together. From nest? Gastric filter? Be kind, please. I know the stigma about a lay person’s ‘great find’ and imagination.
