  • Small faceted hardstone with nutting stone hole

    Found this the other day in Will county IL. Its a piece of hardstone that has a faceted side that has a nutting stone hole. Could it possibly be a geofact? The interior of the hole has a rough surface similar to that of a pecked surface. Thanks for any help.

    Will Co IL...ya dont say...I'm in Plainfield...howdy neighbor !!! It does look like some of the omarolluk stones I have seen/found over the years and that's what I'm leaning toward but that is just my thought. Lets see just what some others chime in with...cool find I woulda grabbed it also.

        I think it’s natural unfortunetly, look up Omar stones.

                  Hey Illinois, That is a real nice Omar. I have an Omar that I use as a palm stone to start friction fires with a bow drill.
