Description: Beautifully sculpted, 8.5 lb., prehistoric, fossilized coral, Paleo-American, rock art hand tool. Although numerous polymorphous images adorn this magnificent blending of art, and functional usefulness. The main frontal facial image suggests a happy looking hominid. Obvious wear patterns, and hand/finger placement contours, imply its use as a light duty hammer or smashing tool; maybe a base or anvil It is an amazing example of ancient craftsmanship and artistry. Found "as is" in West Texas. Thank you for viewing this incredible artifact from the amazing toolmakers in the distant past. Several surreal images make this piece quite interesting. Inside/outside, this lovely will certainly enhance the ambiance, and catch the attention of others. (Many subtle images adorn this masterpiece also.)
