Has anyone ever seen a strange rock like this one? ................

[Kelley (Texas)]

It appears to be a two part rock of some type.....has an inner core and covered by an outer skin. I tried to take a picture at the kitchen table but it did not come out very clear so I took it outside, placed it on our patio deck rail. I took the picture with a Canon A720is camera. Kelley (Texas)

and your detector. OJ might be right. It seems like I have seen something like it before but I can not remember what or where it was

to me anyway, like a big water droplet, hit a mud puddle, the instantly froze in time, with the mud ripple on the outter edge and the water droplet in the center. Weird one that's for sure. Interesting conversation piece to have around....

I've seen a very similar piece of stone--a flint--that I'm pretty sure was worked but our Archaelogical Conservator disagreed. It was a large chunk of flint with the usual not-flint-like coating on the outside. An almost perfect circle had been chipped in it to expose the flint interior, but nothing else had been done to it. For the life of me I can't understand how that circle got chipped in the flint by any agency other than human.

I've got a limestone item that a number of archaeologists have looked at. Several have agreed that it's man-made--until I tell them where it came from. I picked it up on our ranch, 9 mi W of Georgetown in Williamson County & 2
