My son found this at a beach after a big storm in Santa Cruz, California. It was mixed in with a bunch of wood and hard to spot. I think this is a possible bone hoe artifact because of the even rounded edges at the end of the scapula??? Also..one side is "polished" (not the side shown in the pics). Seems too small for a bison but too big for an elk based on what I researched but I know nothing about animal bones. It's about 12 inches long and 6 inches across. Seems like this is a common fossil/artifact in the Midwest USA, but I did not see this as a common tool used by indigenous people on the US West Coast. Any assistance would be much appreciated. If this is something of a rarity for the Central West Coast, or it is a significant artifact due to how complete or undamaged it is, we plan on handing it over to the museum of natural history in Santa Cruz. THANK YOU!!!!

Forgot to add long flint artifacts are very early man. Supposed to be some of first cutting tools. Know one knows for sure. No one is alive or any written language to look at. Just speculation in my opinion -

Ok so obviously this isn't a fossil but I'm hoping someone can help me out. I found this in South Harrison Township, NJ. I know artifacts are commonly found in the area and I think I finally got one. Can anyone ID this piece? Or at least confirm if it is indeed an artifact?
