I found three rocks on the ground by a creek in Southern Missouri. These three rocks were not extremly close to each other, but all of them Were shaped into perfect triangles and completely smoothed down. They were on the ground and the first one pointed in a certain direction that I was walking when I found the next one pointing in another direction. So I walked the direction of that one and found a third. I also followed the third direction but did not find anymore. I collected and kept all three triangular rocks, but wondered if I should have left them, wondering if they were navigational rocks used to point the way to something else.
The land I was walking on is heavily wooded and many arrowheads have also been found near the same area.
I wonder if there is somewhere I could find out more information on rocks like this and what they might have been used for.

I would have check with a local archeologist FIRST, because once they are out of the ground, they no longer show anything.
They may not be Indian at all either.

Do as the person above said, and if they are too big to carry somewhere, simply report them to the nearest University or museum so they can check it out themselves. Make sure you get credit for the discovery though if it turns out to be something!

take them to a university or museum archaeological or anthropological department and see if there's someone that can help you.
