So I was walking around and found what appears to be a half buried cannonball in the dirt. Didn't want to poke at it or kick it around obviously, but I may if curiosity gets the best of me. I don't know what to do next. Any suggestions?

Nebraska. An unlikely place for something like that to show up

There are a two types of cannonballs. Ones filled with gunpowder and others that are solid. I guess it could explode if the powder is still dry and you somehow ignite it. Just dig the thing up and look for seams or just throw it into a bon fire and see what happens..

Yeah, I haven't figured out how to post a picture. After further inspection, though, I've come to the conclusion that it's probably a 16lb shotput

It's probably an old WWII unexploded landmine. Stamping on it a few times will confirm my suspicions. Let us know how you get on?

You could be right about that. I haven't seen a 16lb cannonball listed anywhere.
