Deadeyes were commonly used on all sailing ships, mounted on port and starboard side at deck level off the fore, aft and mizzen masts. Who ever provided that Face Book description was not correct. They were not just used in port (never heard of such a thing) but were used to adjust the tension on the main stay rigging lines.

Find this is a nice artifact but associates with the upper sides and deck of the vessel, more than likely associated with the large piece of wood already found. Without ballast, and normally associated shipwreck content (pottery/shards, treasure, artifacts, etc.) I remain of the opinion this is flotsam broke away from the main shipwreck site which could be a hundred yards away or miles away. If can be done, follow the trail.
