It’s a curious specimen for sure. Does it have the features of a broken antler tine?
Things We Find In The Outdoors
Found this thing today in the bottom of a dried up creek bed. Not calling it a tooth' fossil or artifact until I find out what it might be. 3” long' 1” wide and its harder than the gravel and chat it was laying in. Any ideas?

Sure looks like an antler tip that’s been petrified. I’ve found bison tooth enamel in the Arkansas river that is petrified.
the enamel is on the left side with the stone point being the one that was verified by a museum curator to be 5000 B.C years old. He also identified the bison tooth enamel. Sadly, he passed away last month. Both found in the Arkansas river near Ponca.

I had a friend that I think passed away in Shidler named Richard Diesel. He had one heck of a collection of Native American artifacts he had collected in the Kaw Lake area. I'm sure you probably knew him?
Yes. Knew him well. He used to come chicken hunting and look for arrowheads and other artifacts. He was well known at OU college for his local native knowledge. He knew where 2 campgrounds once were on our ranch and after locating them we found lots of stuff. He got my mother and 2 other ranchers wives interested in arrowheads and hunting them. We would walk all the fields after they had been worked up and rained on. Mom and the other 2 ladies and usually 4-6 of us kids walked all over Beaver creek from the lake to the state line on our ranch. Found hundreds of points, tools and other artifacts. Mom spilt all of hers up between my 2 sisters, my brother and I. I put mine in a wagon wheel type coffee table. Sisters did theirs in shadow boxes and my brother has all of his laying all over his house in neat little displays.
