A couple more caveman tools unearthed (East Texas)

[TexasTornado]

I found them both on my property here in East Texas while excavating about 6' of dirt.

One of them appears to be some sort of slicing tool, as it fits comfortably in between your fingers and has a thick spine to apply pressure on. I can see marks where it appears to have been resharpened.

The other one I have no idea...it just looks unnatural...if anyone has any ideas.

I’m not sure but I do know there is a lot of fossils in Texas

I believe the 1st one is a badly weathered fossil Brachiopod Mucrospirifer. The other look natural.

It's a stone...not a fossil (I did look up the strange looking thing you suggested, though, and that's definitely not it).

I'll try and upload a better picture...

I'm not seeing any workmanship. Kim

At this point I'm almost 100% certain it was to draw on cave walls (I found it in East Texas where there are ironically very few caves).

In any cave, I mean case, here is what I believe to be an authentic cave man pencil (happy to be proven wrong, though).

Moved from the topic you created about this same stone.

And a blind person enters the thread....

But seriously...my phone isn't doing these Indian cave people justice...some better pics...

Are we being tested? Come on

If you start demeaning people that are trying to help you, this won’t go as you planned.

We all have opinions Texas T. I have seen at least a million artifacts in my 62 years of collecting and studying. I am an Archaeologist and I don't know everything, but I am not blind! It doesn't look like a fossil to me, but I think it is a stretch to positively call them Artifacts. Lets see what others say before you poke fun at someone you don't know. Kim

[SurfaceHunter]

Probably a person we know playing a joke

[Hal Gorges]

It looks like a spin top, that’s a cool stone

[Mattern]

Now I can agree with a cave pencil LOL. Switching threads won't prove anything.

It's a little creepy that you're following me around.

Still a rock if not a fossil. Cave pencil, come on.
