I heard there's a cannonball guy around : ) I found this freediving. You can tell its been underwater for quite some time. It's grey stone real hard. The diameter is 75cm and it weighs 10kg. The roundness is what made me pick it up and the dimensions are what got me writing this. There are a couple of spanish shipwrecks around here. The better known went down in 1800. Stone anchors from the natives (pre-colombian) are relatively common to find underwater around here. Although haven't seen one that matches exactly the type of stone (but i'm no expert). I read the spanish used stone cannonballs for the deck, anti-personnel, like a shotgun. Is there any truth to that? Iron for piercing vessel, stone for killing people.
