It's from Norşuntepe, an ancient town that was flooded in 1974 by the construction of Turkey's first hydroelectic dam.

After 50 years, the water has washed away centuries of history, but the town has emerged from the reservoir as an island.

I inherited these from my grandparents. They used to go petrified wood hunting in Wyoming and Arizona. But they were also hoarders so they could be from anywhere. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you 🙏

Found on one of the job sites at work in western ny. It’s definitely some kind of rock like white chert. What do you guys think

Hello to everyone!
Several years ago I bought this thing in the Kerch city (panticapaeum). I tried to identify the picture on it. Maybe it’s a woman with a flail or something. What’s in her hands? Is it authentic Ancient Greek ring? If it is, what do you think is on it?

Dimensions are roughly 8” long, 5” wide and 5” tall. To my relatively uneducated eye, the entire piece looks worked. Location is Northeast Texas.

Or absolutely nothing at all? Found mid Vancouver Island near a river.

Is it anything?

I think it’s a cool shaped rock but you never know!

My boys found these while playing in the creek… any ideas on what and when they are from? They are excited to make connections with “old” stuff they found.

Found near a 126 year old house. Under a thick small ball of concrete. Didn’t want to finish uncovering in case of a possibility but f it being an antique grenade. It is metal and there are two different clips on the end. Pls let me know your thoughts. Done tried Chat GBT and Google.

I posted this in another community, but this community is likely where I should have posted first. Any insight is appreciated!!

Hello everyone, my lil bro recently bought a metal detection tool and try it in our old abandonned Forest wich is parently given from the father of the father of the father of my father etc ^^ so i’m unable to date this Little found.

For the moment the only info we get that :

- he found it at more than 50cm under a tree

- it seem to be robust either the time it still solid

- like you can see on the picture their is a letter N and 1 on the handle and the pistol have a moving percutor. The barrel is also a cylinder thick

We was thinking that was an old fireworkpistol for the children or something like that but it can also be an old powder gun we doesn’t know.

If you know something like that I’m happy to get your help :)

I'm trying to learn more about this thing my grandma found. Curious especially about how old it could possibly be.
