Petrified wood or sandstone?

Found this today in creekbed while looking for points. Is this petrified wood or just a layered sandstone or something else? Thanks

Schreger lines on wood? Schreger lines are found on ivory and nothing else.

Sorry, but you’re still not showing Schreger lines. Schreger lines cross at an angle. They don’t run parallel to the outside curve of the tusk. Mammoth lines cross at about 90° like this pic. African elephant lines cross at 45°.
