Hello. I have an artifact of some kind that was dredged up from the bottom of Vermillion Bay, Louisiana, and I'm wondering if it is a cannonball sabot?
Here are photos of it (note that it still contains some barnicle growth on it, or some kind of sea-life growth).

It's made largely of wood, but it has traces of metal around it (badly corroded).
I look forward to hearing any suggestions as to what this item might be.
Sincerely,
