Nice artifacts,thanks for posting...

the spear point is about 6 and 1/2 inches and was obviously broken.Thats why the patina is different from top to bottom.While I'm on this subject whats your opinon on glueing stuff together.This point was glued because its easier to display........

Cool- ground stone blades/points are very rare! Is the long slender piece next to it in the first pic a trade pipe stem?

Hey I think gluing is fine as it beats finding only half. I've got an old Florida point that is glued, and really gnarly but it's one of my favorites. Thanks for the pics.

Great finds. And I thought you found in Maine was lobsters and potatos. Har Har. Good luck,Ron

No Cannonman its some type of rod it all most looks like a sharpening steel only made of stone.Some ceremonial rods have been found but they are usually larger up to a couple of feet and with a larger circumference.I can tell you there are no holes at either end.Other than that all I can say is that it was found in the thick of things therefore guilty by association.
