50 points for whoever identifies this stone...

I found a small stone at a waterway nearby where I live today, and I haven't identified what kind of stone it is. It has a very nice carving of a demon-like fish-face (or that is what I see), but based on how chiseled the sides are it must have been from a much larger piece. It reminds me of an ancient carving, so I put the thread in this forum because of it. Excuse the bad quality of the pictures, my webcam was horribly cheap.

Good luck.

EDIT: I will try and get a much better quality photo soon, but at the moment I'm stuck with these blurry shots. I apologize.

It kind of looks like a face...or some kind of mayan stone.

Or maybe it's not a stone at all?

By "waterway" do you mean a shallow stream or on the side of a river?
And do you live by any historically famous places that it could be connected to?

**Kushna Mufeed** · 11-10-2008 03:23 AM

I'm just gonna post this since DD did so in chat but didn't here.

That's a pretty awesome find, I must say.

**tnemrot** · 11-10-2008 03:25 AM

Now you've got me curious.

**Original Poster** · 11-10-2008 04:33 AM

Fucking awesome.

What area do you live in, DD?

I mean a walkway that goes alongside a rather large storm drain by a freeway. I don't live in any places that should have fragments of a Aztec sun disk regularly collect in such a location, so I assume that coincidence drew me to find the piece of the sun disk I have in my possession.

A relatively low-populated city in southern California that is surrounded by a few large cities. :3

Well, I am sure as hell going to keep myself updated on this one.

Yay, you have 911 posts.

**Original Poster** · 11-10-2008 06:26 AM

Socal would have done just fine

The aztecs were the only people in that area making things like that, as far as I know.

What an interesting signature to have...

**Reality_is_a_Dream** · 11-10-2008 06:32 AM

Yea, it's the first time I saw it too.

Apparently Kushna Mufeed just earned 50 experience points...

**Kushna Mufeed** · 11-11-2008 06:01 AM

You'll note that I didn't take credit for it.

**spockman** · 11-11-2008 07:01 AM

Then I suppose you get -25 xp and DD gets +25. Half and half sound fair?

**Kushna Mufeed** · 11-11-2008 02:29 PM

I don't need your petty xp.

I'm at level infinity

**DeathCell** · 11-11-2008 04:23 PM

Does that possibly mean you have some ancient ruins underground somewhere near where you live?

Things like that don't just travel hundreds of miles down stream do they? Does this stream connect into mexico? You must find where this came from.

It would be cool to find some lost ruins -.-

**Kushna Mufeed** · 11-11-2008 07:23 PM

True that, but it probably was just a random rock washed ashore just like all the other rocks. This one just happened to be part of an Aztec sun disk once upon a time.

If anything, search the area and if your lucky you might find more pieces.

But an Aztec ruin in North America? No

More like "lol, no"

**Kushna Mufeed** · 11-12-2008 04:28 AM

I don't say 'lol'

Ever

**Techno** · 11-12-2008 06:00 AM

Did you know that the fishies on either side of the Sun god symbol in the center of the Azetc Calender are actually the claws of the Sun god, and inside each claw is the heart of a human? So I possess the right hand of god, and inside is the heart of...the sun? Yeah, I had no idea where I was going with this post. :3
