      The one you are showing in the last pic does show some battering. It could be a hammerstone. If you are looking for camps, look for flint flakes and fire cracked rock. Later camps in your area would be littered with pottery sherds.

            Ha! I've got a son in Tucson and have spent a lot of time in Nevada as well, hear what you are saying about pottery laying everywhere.
            Some of those could be hammerstones, hard to tell. Like Rmartin, if your in a camp there should be other signs. Flint, flakes, Arrowheads!, fire rock, maybe bone, shell, etc. You'll know without a doubt.
            Keep on hunting and keep on showing us what you find, me I like the SW stuff!

              I agree with Ray,  the last pic looks like it could very well be a hammerstone.  At least its a clue.
              If you find more stuff there,  then it probably is.   Gary
