Hi guys!
Im new on this forum so sorry if i chose wrong topic
I found something interesting and i think its some kind of historical object, gonna post few pictures if someone can help, thanks
The first thing that jumps to mind is a stone net weight.
Did you find it in a coastal environment?
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.
If you do a search on Google Images for < stone net weight > you'll get quite a sample. The actual size of the stone also matters as similar but smaller stones were used as loom weights for weaving.

Nothing jumps out about that. Here's a tip, though. It helps if you put something in the photo to give it a sense of scale. A coin or even better a ruler.
A small object with a hole might suggest a decorative bead or something whereas something larger suggests a more industrial use.

I'll stick with a net weight for the first one. The other thing could be natural. I can't tell from the photo if there is any wear on either end such as you would get from a pestle.
The scissors help.

Could be natural. Always hard to tell with stone objects. There's always a row with Koorie artifacts, some are obviously man-made others may be naturally occurring, some rocks do gain sharp edges naturally.
Context can help, is it near a midden? Is there the remnants of a butchered animal nearby?
A diprotodon rib was once found featuring a chip which corresponded to a nearby "spear tip". It was taken as evidence for the destruction of the species by humans - but the "spear tip" could have been naturally occurring and it was pointed out that there were a number of other sharp stones which would have fitted the bill.
Does nothing for me. Quite smooth. I can't make out any obvious tool marks.

some are probably stone age tools?
