Sonny. Looks like a little plow drag on it but looks like its been pecked or worn some. Does not look like a natural tumble marks. I would say it was used as a hammer stone. Mat best guess

Mano.


Mano is the Spanish word for "hand," and it refers to a stone that is held in one or both hands and moved back and forth against a larger stone in order to grind seeds, nuts, and other hard materials. Metate is derived from metatl, a word used by native peoples in central Mexico to describe the larger stone against which the mano is ground.

I have one almost exactly like it and always thought it was a pecking stone or a tool to take flakes off.
