Found after tree clearing on a construction site. It is definitely natural, rather than carved, with no surface details aside from the whorls. It is wooden, and hard all over. It cannot be indented by a fingernail, and a small cut into it shows it is indeed actual wood.
But… What the heck is it? I've worked in environmental science for a while, and I've genuinely never seen anything like this.

Some type of whack-ass burl maybe? No idea what tree though.
It’s a burl, basically a tree tumor. I’m guessing this one came off the roots somewhere.
Please sand, add finish, and mount on stone! Would be such a cool piece.

I thought was a croissant
