Any Villager Archaeologists out there?

I found this interesting rock in my yard while gardening. It looks to me that it might be an axe head as there appear to be tool marks on one side and an indent where twine might have been wound to attach the head to a spear. I cannot drive a car so traveling to a museum is not an option. I'm hoping we have an expert among us willing to take a look at it.

It does kinda look like a Clovis tool

I also found a fossil sea urchin a few feet away from this piece.

I'm not that familiar with Florida's past but I believe the Seminole once were here.

There was a big battle in Sumter County back in 1835. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dade_Massacre |
Could you take some pictures from different angles with a ruler alongside?? https://www.google.com/search?q=ax+h...82Maa9qHOF0%3D

Thank you all for your interest. I've contacted a museum with photo and will let you know if I hear back I'll upload more photos today, per request

Looks like limestone which is way too soft to be used for tools. You could probably tap the side with a hammer and it would break in half.
