More Unkown stuff

Found this rock with paint on it and the boot looking piece that has a little pin hole at the top. Both found on a creek bank bordered by a large corn field and woods. The painted rock puzzled me because there are no houses or any people nearby.

The one on the left looks to be a pendant type artifact to me. Not sure about the painted rock?

We need a better pic of that hole, to make a determination on that piece? Thanks for the view!

A couple of those ones on the left would make for a nice wind chime.

The rock on the right looks to have red inclusions and not paint, the white actually looks like sun baked bird poop. Many times I have picked up what I thought was speckled Coshocton Flint only to have it turn out to be bird poop on a rock, and after the sun hits it for a awhile it gets baked on.

I've picked up a lot of turkey poop, sand hill crane poop, sea gull poop, goose poop, little unidentified bird poop, large unidentified bird poop, duck poop, old poop, really really fresh poop, and ooops, I ate too many bugs and now I have the runs or something poop. Cuts back on biting your nails though.

The picture on the right appears to be a small piece of Tillite, which is a result of glacial lithification (or cementation). The piece on the looks like sand or limestone which can weather and water wear in crazy ways: however, that hole does look man made...
