I have no clue what those are and especially since the photo is dark and I can't see the details very well, you might want to try various lighting. I can see some details on a coin at top right.

They look like meteorites. Do they stick to a magnet?

The only ancients that I can think of that vaguely resemble these are Judean coins, but I really don't know for sure what they are.

To me they look like chipped Trachy of the Byzantine empire under the Latin Rulers 1204-1261 AD.

I really have no idea, although similar shapes suggest that human hands made them.
