just about every time i hit the creek i bring home something thats just strange. yesterday i was really hoping to find a 6 inch cumberland or a nice clovis or a super fossil but then this oddity just stood out in the matrix of river gravel.

Phallic effigies are fairly common where pestles are concerned. In this photo, from a display at the Robbins Museum in Ma., 3rd pestle from top is one such example. BTW, the top 2 here are nice snake effigy pestles, including mouth and eyes. Maybe the item in this thread is a tie on pendant of sorts. Does not have to be an effigy per se. I've seen some like that, almost like a miniature plummet.....
