Spindle Whorl Artifact
My Circle Collection for the Macro Monday Challenge on 4/19/2021
If I were guessing, this could have come from river rock along the Mississippi River. I believe it came in a bag of river rock recently purchased. This could be a crude spindle whorl used for weaving. My guess is that it was made by the indigenous inhabitants in the area or Early American settlers.
Do you see notches in both the inner circle and outer circle? This could be to control the flow of the thread or yarn.
