    I think you have in fact solved the case! Thank you. Has been an interesting journey. I’m still going to tell people it’s an ancient alien mummy but we’ll know the truth 😉 seriously though, great job

    The mystery needs to be solved! Thank you for checking with some other experts im intrigued more than ever. It’s literally been used as a door stop so I’m glad I’ve finally started to try and work out this little puzzle. My dad actually found it himself whilst out on a safari trip. I’m trying to get it looked at the British Museum but it’s a bit techy, they want papers as documentary evidence. I guess there are ethical issues and implications if it was a valuable Ancient Egyptian find. So my next bet would be some kind of geology lab? Someone from a fossil forum also suggested the national history museum as they believe it could be a particularly impressive example of banded flint and they would be interested however he said he wasn’t sure and wanted to promise to let me know the outcome of the mystery once solved haha

    Haha thanks Jasong if I do decide to see you will get first offer promise 😁 the fossil people recon it’s not a fossil so I guess have to try and find a way to get it tested. Thank you so much for your input . I Google everything anyone suggests!

    Thank you for your reply, I don’t have any scales here sadly but will get some tomorrow as I’ve been trying to guess the weight for a few days now. It’s so heavy. I will then attempt to do the test as you suggested and let you know. Thanks again. Anything further suggestions on tests I could do to to solve this mystery would be gratefully received!

    Some more pics with scratch test. 1st pic. Untouched ceramic 2nd pic when scratched on the broken edge there were no marks coloured scratches. 3rd When scratched on the darkest smooth side there were brown marks. could have done with a better price of ceramic to be honest , everything I had was glazed

    Someone on a fossil forum has suggested banded flint?

    Yes I thought of melting lava which then made me think it could be a meteor. Gogottes look amazing some similarities. Thank you for your input!

    This comment!! Almost gave me a heart attack I thought you were going to say a mine. Equally terrifying is that it could be radio active and I’m looking at with suspicion as I type this. I barely know a thing about rocks so will try to addrsss your questions. the embedded rock looks like a crystal diamond wedged in I’ll send a close up image. Not sure if light can shine trough seems opaque but white and separate to the rest of the rock ill try the scratch test on the back of a plate? thanks for your reply! Yes sadly it is from an area heavily involved in the war with Israel (land mine zones) not sure about the French period. I would say that was more near suiez canal

    Hi there thanks for your help. This stone was found in the Sahara desert. I thought it was a fossil but to be honest I have no idea what it is. Any help would be appreciated. seems carved but maybe could be natural markings, extremely heavy. Sound 30cm x 20cm, some sort of quartz stone embedded.
