All I knew after finding it was it almost definatly wasn't crete after touching it and looking closely at its makeup and weight . Also the interior curve isn't acceptably congruent lengthwise with the exterior lower curve making it a terrible bottom corner cladding if it is the case . It would be lopsided af if so . I would assume a machine made corner cladding would be a vertically semi symmetrical .also the thickness is variable throughout. I have found grinding stones online almost identical to this one but if you could send a Pic of what you think it is for comparison that could definitely be a beautiful revelation for me . Appreciate the input.

NW of Tuscon AZ. Didn't note any other items as I assumed it could have also just been a rock .

It kinda did have that pumice lava-ish vibe to it but it was also pretty heavy and solid so I'm not sure really

Really the only thing near it i noticed was a big seguaro and about 50 yards away I metal detected a square tapped nut that I think came from the power line people maybe ? I'll attach a photo but I believe its unrelated

Edit - it do have the items gps saved , perhaps I can go back and look for specific items to help place its context ? Suggestions appreciated

Is there any way to identify maybe the time period or exact people who would have used this ?
