I didn’t think the scorpion king was a “myth”- didn’t they just find his tomb?

Not going to stay upright much longer than it takes Bubba to swill a twelve pack. They never know how to swim, either.

I don’t know about the Scorpion King. I would have thought that a drug lord. ;-)

You might be able to help me here SC. My sisters husband found this in the woods behind their home (NNE Pa up arounds Friendsville, Pa). What is it? I haven't a clue. It's probably nothing to do with archaeology. Probably more geology - but maybe you have some ideas? It is a rock. About 2 lbs. About 9 inches in length, and five inches wide and 2 inches thick. Odd hole in the center. Maybe some of your GGG list will have an idea about this?
Thanks!

If Zahwi Hawass had anything to do with verifying this it is automatically suspect.

Google ‘coprolite’, then tell him to go wash his hands.

LOL! “Coprolite” was my first thought too! My sister is calling it the ‘big turd’ now! lol!
It looks like there’s a worm on the edge of the hole, and a small snake curled up inside. It’s hard to tell from that picture. My sister e-mailed the pic to me, and I saved it to my editing program and enlarged it.
I suggested that she take it to the local university geology dept.

"Archaeologists believe they have found the tomb of the Scorpion King at the ancient burial site of Abydos. He was buried with 700 wine jars, several of which had come from as far away as ancient Palestine."
