Just got done speaking with Ms. Pat Emerson of the Minnesota historical society.  I directed her to this web site, and she looked at the picture of the potential artifact.  She said it could be between 100 to 5000 years old.  I'm going to be cleaning it up and sending her some better pictures.  I explained to her where we found it and what we thought it was used for.  She said, that was an excellent theory and was very interested in seeing the piece.  She said, they have evidence very close to their call the Bradbury Brook site dating back 9000 years which is only 6 miles from our dive site.  She also said that the entire Mille Lacs Lake area is one big archaeological site.
