Description
Native American used light brown-red quartz stone. On upper face are two circular rounded out areas, one of which has a hole in the middle. On the lower face face is another rounded out area, underneath the one without a hole on top (as if to create a way to grip the object). [Describing this object as a spirt stone may be speculative. It may just be a piece of quartz from which they carved tools and projectile points.]
