Bug Cocoon?

Question

I found a bug coccon and I'm tring to figure out if it's a butterfly, and if so, what types it's.

I found it at my grandmother's house in ky.

The coccon is about 2/3's of an inch long. It's really hard ,and is a mixture of bronw black and white, with small white thorn-like protrusionss ont it's back.

Does anyone know where I can find a picture on the internet of something similiar?

Thanks!

If you have a museum in your town you can take it down there for identification from their bug expert. Ours does identification for free here, they like it when the public has a challenge for them.
