A Turtle Effigy from Narragansett Bay
Found on Narragansett Bay (Saunderstown, North Kingston, not far from the Jamestown Bridge) in 1936. Made of sandstone. I think the ancient artisan did a great job with just a little sandstone pebble to work with. Turtle is my best guess.
Close up of head....
From the side view, you can see there is a recess behind the head...
From the back, you might not even pick it up!
