My cousin found this in Southern Indiana today, has a spot of quartz in the stone and he put a light behind it. Thought it was cool.

Nice find

Bi-face not an arrowhead based on the size.
used for cutting up stuff

Sweet! The old pot licker, Matt Jones, used to find a lot of points in the Kentucky area.

Indiana and the Wabash river bottoms have lots of points and some decent sang hunting. Spent many hours and parts of my day looking when I trapped there.

The neatest think I ever saw Matt post, that he found, was the stack of cannon balls from the Civil War, on the bluff overlooking the Ohio River.

The quartz window makes that artifact pretty unique.

Great find

Beautiful

While I'm setting, resetting, death raying, ketchall-ing, or whatever, Donna is always looking in the dirt.
Her best finds so far this week.

Very nice.

In one week: Amazing!

My grandfather had a cigar box full to the top of arrowheads. He farmed with a team of horses and would walk behind the horses all day looking down at the ground.

Donna has an eye for them. I did find the one on the left in a coyote catch circle. We've found 100's over the past decade. Some day we're going to sit down and sort them out. It's our retirement project, but we're not retired yet, so they wait. We gave one good projectile to all the older grandchildren as keep sakes.

That or maybe a spearhead? I know a bunch of ranchers in the west who’s families have been finding artifacts for many many decades and the one thing I notice most is how small the arrowheads are. They are a rock on a stick. Weight would have played a big factor and besides once wounded what did an Indian have better to do than follow the animal until it dropped?

Beautiful find I would add.

What we like finding more than projectiles is well used tools. This scraper is awesome! I found it near my first coyote today, laying half submersed in the dirt. It is a scraper and is well oiled by human use. A lot of human use. Notches chipped perfectly to fit a right handed native. My tool collection is my pride and joy. Axes. Spoons. Gravers. Awls. And more.

Very nice!

Chris

Osky nailed it ! The ones we have seen in buffalo jump are very small and thin .

I've posted this picture before, but as long as we are talking about stone tools and such.
I found this in SW Alaska, an "expert" told me it is for splitting cedar logs, but there are no cedar logs let-alone trees for a long ways.
I think it is an ice spud?? Any ideas?



This is what the country looks like where I found it.

Just got to look in the right place.

This is 2 short afternoons walking food plots on bluffs along a large Ga river.
