Balboa Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Found last spring in Lawrence Co. Tennessee in a small creek while artifact hunting. Thought it was unique so I hauled it home. Any thoughts on what it could be are appreciated...thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caldigger Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Maybe some intertwined burrows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balboa Posted September 8, 2019 Author Share Posted September 8, 2019 That would be a better guess that my stack of sticks...lol...I just don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Kmiecik Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I've never seen anything like that before. It certainly has an organic look to it. Could be burrows, but for some reason it strikes me as more wood-like. I would have hauled it home also. Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!
