Ancient Effigy Stone - Eoliths

A simple pebble find with a simple face description, very good symmetry can be observed.

A sad looking face.

A less sad looking face when the stone is flipped over?

This find from Colin Bentham, UK, also has a face like description with some good symmetry. The eye features appear to be highlighted with an iron compound (ochre).

Prehistoric Stone Toy or Decision making Device?

Another stone from my site that shows various face profiles, hominid, ape and feline and other prehistoric language elements. But is there a little more to this piece of portable rock art than first meets the eye? The stone has a kind of trigger/lever which can be used to spin the device and a gouged chevron, which presumably was used to indicate direction. The Item could of been used rather like spin the bottle, as a toy or gaming device, or to make decisions about direction of travel or who should go and collect the dinosaur stakes for supper.
