Didn't want to collect it. It's on an ancient Indian Village site. On public lands, where it is not prohibited I might have. I did think about it, but you got to respect the place.
Here is a photo of the main area of the village, where they'd prepare the acorns or other nuts and grains for food. Some call the round holes in the rocks cupules, but we call them grinding holes or metates. That's DH's back. All of the flatish rocks in this area had the metates in them. Some were shallow, the deepest was almost to my elbow.
