Help with metal object.

[Lil Nick]

I found this piece of metal at an old Indian camp dating back to the late 1700's. There is written history of a battle between the Indians and the Spanish during that time period. I have found a lot of square nails and metal pieces that look like they may have been from large kettle pots. Several people looked at it and thought it might be a part from and old gun.
Thanks for any help.

I think you folks got it right.
Thanks

It looks like the broken off end of a campfire cookpot hanger.

Looks like a broken up tractor wrench to me.
