    Any suggestions on the type of stone? What is that figure supposed to be?
    Thanks

    GaleriaGila Hola, y'all!

    A pretty wild guess, but... I once saw something that looked so similar, and it was fossilized mammoth tooth, supposedly.

    EDIT
    Or mammoth... ivory?

    Or could be shell, or tagua nut?
    I think it is a monkey engaged in an indecent act.

    It dings like a stone. Harder than tegua nut.

    Does fossilized ivory ting? Technically, it's stone, right?
