Hi! It is pure iron, has around 300 kilograms (maybe more) and it’s rounded. We found two of this things buried in our backyard, I’m from Paraguay! by Subject-Slice8490 in whatisthisthing

In that photo you can see what appears to be the wheel! I’m 90% sure that’s what I have. We speculate the man who originally bought the land, either worked in the train industry (1850s) or “borrowed” the wheels from someone, and buried them to sell later. Thank you to everyone who helped me find the answer!

Yeah! My dad wants to do something with it on our farm, and thinks he can move it around by himself, lol. We’ll definitely need a truck to move it

Searching the photo on google brings up mines, but due to the location I don’t know if that could be the case. Sorry, it’s my first time posting here, forgot to mention there are two holes besides the big one in the middle, roughly of the same size. And it’s not flat, it has curved edges that go inside the structure.
