Auspex Posted August 16, 2009 Author Share Posted August 16, 2009 Thank you, MB and Coco; I am glad to accumulate any and all information that might be pertinent. It is likely that the provenance for this object will remain dubious. At worst, it is a curio, fabricated by someone taking advantage of a natural process. At best, it is perhaps Pliocene, perhaps sub-fossil, which came to be accidentally through the same natural process. I have found examples of each possibility cited during my search for clues, and will continue searching. It may ultimately remain unknowable, but the process of seeking clues is, for me, very enjoyable (and educational).
