Mgarretson17 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I found this in North Texas in a well-documented fossil/Indian artifact creek. I found this, and have been unable to confirm what it is. It is dense, and seems to be ground heavily in two spots in particular (on perfect for a thumb). It's approximately 3 inches long and 1-2 inches thick. Is this some kind of hand tool? Any ideas would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ynot Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Looks like a stream tumbled cobble to Me. I do not see any evidence of "working". 1 Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

Rockwood Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I'm afraid I have to disagree with you both. The post clearly states it was found in a "creek" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically "stream" is any water flowing in a channel. Creek, river or brook are just size differentiators. 1 Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."
