Triple notched net weight?

[Wandermore91]

Do these exist? Because I believe I found one today. I returned to my known fishing site in search of points but stumbled upon this instead. It appears to be ground smooth and notched in three places. I have never seen a weight notched more than twice. The three notches are quite evenly spaced. I believe I might see evidence of pecking and grinding as well. If this is a weight it is very water worn due to location so please keep that in mind. What does everyone think? If this is what my suspicion tells me, can anyone date it for me? Thank you!








Hard to photograph it in a way where all notches are visible at once, but I tried my best. Also tried to show the notches individually.

In the South East our weights are smaller used in the Tennessee River. I imagine they used multiple quickly made weights. Good thread on a tool.
