Not sure where to even start looking for info on this one. Almost looks like the end of a humerus  but I’ve never seen one quite like this. North central Nebraska. Most likely miocene

Can you show an end-on view from the top?

 

If I'm judging right, the the bottom of your first picture is the bottom of the bone.  If you place the bone in that position and tilt it 90 degrees toward you, can you get us a top-down view of that?

 

I'm thinking it may be a radius, but that view may help.

I will try to get more pics later today. I kind of get a reptile vibe from this.

Here’s a couple more views. Those humps coming off the backside seem really strange also. 569FA0EF-EA94-41CF-A6AB-981CA48F2127.thumb.jpeg.c9269cc38c230e1233565a7b53f15c86.jpegD4042706-0210-4A01-9903-9F150EB1663C.thumb.jpeg.55fb4799a5cd12c9a93e85c6035bac6f.jpeg

Could that be a navicular or ectocuneiform shown best at the top section of the 5th picture?
