OK... I have dug up two or three of these things in old fields used for rotation crops. I dont think the pic shows the ful item....but a broken piece... I have not found one that appears to be whole. Bell found one in on the South rises again thread in todays finds.

Sure would like to know exactly what it is... I have only speculated thus far.

Thanks for any and all input!
