If I hadn't been there when this was created, I would think it was some weird kind of rock.
Summer of 1966- one Sunday morning during church, our biggest hay barn caught fire somehow. Full of fresh cut Sudan square bales that we finished stacking Saturday night. Inside the barn, a neighbors home made hay hauling machine was parked.
We didn't know if it was spontaneous combustion from the rich green hay or a wiring short on the machine- but the barn burned to the ground, making for a rough year.
Anyway, poking through the rubble, we found a few of these. My oldest brother found one that was still warm. He took an axe to it and we found Sudan hay inside. I can't explain it, but I'm guessing some of the greenest hay simply carberized from the heat of the fire.
It's basically melted hay.
Thanks for playing!https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...dfa03fa341.jpg

Basically a big chunk of charcoal then? Cool thanks for sharing. You ever try to take a chunk and burn it?
Not charcoal as far as I can tell. It is rain,sun,wind,ice, dust and everything else proof for 56 years so far.
I wish it was Obsidian, Bazoo! It would make lots of arrowheads to sell online- if I knew how to make arrowheads…..
petrified wood...
well i do,nt know but its a nice one
:goodpost:
I was thinking this also ... I've also found several , I have one that looks like a fish , so I mounted it on a board ,like a taxidermist would a mounted fish ... I think it's around in the garage someplace ... next archeology dig I'll look for it !
Sorta look like pine knots out of downed , rotted trees... but cool looking things to find .

It's a big Lump of Charcoal .... and you kept it all these years .

It's not porous like charcoal at all. Maybe I should saw out a pair of handgun grips from it. Nah. It ain't eating anything, I'll just leave it there by the dog pen.
I'll put up another (easier) thing to guess soon.
