Hi there,
In an otherwise fruitless outing in a field in the North-East of Scotland I chanced upon this stone ball on the surface of a ploughed field. I don't know if the hole was man-made, it's about 2mm deep. Any ideas? Thanks! |

Could be the prototype for the development of "A rolling stone gathers no moss."

I've found balls like that around old pottery sites - the potters would make little clay balls to separate the pots being fired - that way they could stack the pots and the fire could get to all parts except for the little points where the clay balls touched the pot.

not really, but I do think it is a manmade clay marble... I've found several.
