Pics are great guys. I walk around the farm every day with my eyes on the ground but have only found 4 in 30 years. I find lots of lead but rarely find artifacts

Great finds and collects WT. We don't get too many spear points here because the cherts to the north of us and the gravel base here in the south of Texas aren't big enough. They would have had to trade for them. Most are the triangle projectiles from the paleo or archaic eras. The dating is not as concrete because of the lack of archeological digs over the course of the last 100 years, and the lack of a solid base of data of which to make conclusions.
I've been a student of history and native lithic (stone) work most of my life. Donna caught the fever when she met me. We often wonder, what we will do with these pieces hundreds and thousands of years old, when we get really long in the tooth?
My Mrs. loves looking for sheds and native lithic workings. It's fun to hear her yell, "I got a really nice one!" as I'm putting in a set.
Blessings, Mark

I find some pretty small points out my way. These are Kalapuya points from the southern Willamette valley. Mostly found in in plowed fields near old stream beds. That is amazing! I've never seen any like that. Hard to believe those tiny points were not broken over the years, very cool.

Whitetrash what is the one in the first pic bottom middle with the U/horseshoe imprint I believe it's what they call a tongue pipe, but I ain't no expert at positive identification. I do know there are some Dalton, Schneider, Adena, Graham Cave, Scott's Bluff,and Sedaila points in there. Have several that I've found right around my house that two experts can't ID as to which tribe they can be attributed to.

Was matt a member of the forum and is he still a member or still post.I have found a few points mostly in are yard in are garden now are garden is a cow pen last one I found was on a creek bank a couple years ago my dad found a neckles piece perfectly flat on one side with two quarts eyes in it but one is missing it was a face of something . my mom's uncle has a tomahawk head or mallet he found when he was a kid. nothing civil related other then a couple of old family grave yards of four a mile or so apart both of them related that all died in 1863 or 1865 pretty sure 1863. keep posting pics love seeing the old artifacts post the civil war stuff to.
Matt was a once active member. He hasn't been on since 8/1/2019. https://trapperman.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/users/21543Matt had a lot of very interesting, very good posts. Most of his posts have unfortunately been pruned off now. Keith

You guys have some amazing collections, I found a broken axe head when I was a kid and I have found lots of pieces but never any perfect points. My cousin who farms near me has found lots of them over the years and looks for them all the time.
