Wow, you guys have found some amazing artifacts. I don't have any tools or points but I did find this stone effigy pipe 68 years ago when I was playing by a creek as a kid. ![[Linked Image]](https://trapperman.com/forum/attachments/usergals/2022/01/full-3328-123245-60.jpg) I put the stem in it from a piece of hollowed out sumac. Nice find. Did you ever use it? Keith Was down to a Minn convention a couple years back and camped besides someone ( trapper) from a SW Minn Indian reservation and they said very few were left to be able to dig for the rock to make those pipes from as for the rules the Band had. I have dug one in an archeological site in Manitoba so it was interesting to learn the process

In no way do I mean this to demean Native Americans, but have you ever wondered; If Europeans had never landed in the western hemisphere would the Indians still be in the stone-age? I think they would be. Just think, the eastern hemisphere in the computer age and here in north America it would still be as is was before Columbus discovered this place.
It amazes me that the rest of the world discovered bronze and iron thousands of years ago, yet the native Americans were still in the stone-age. I wonder why?
