Am I going to find a body if I keep going:/ so far, in this one spot under an oak tree in my backyard, I have found2 indian cents,a ring,beads, and what looks to be the cylinder part to a gun but may be a toy because it has 8 holes and i cant find anything with an 8 shot. Pictured above that I need help IDing (or any info would be great) are
a tooth im sure of but don't know what species
a headless statue that is carved from maybe bone? There isn't a maker's mark that I can see except maybe on the back its either RK or it could just be the wrinkles in the figures coat.
some rusty items that might go with the gun
possibly A hammer to a gun but I dont know because it almost looks fossilized
A piece of broken glass that says SON which I thought was cool I gave it to my son whos 8 and loves finding fossils.
A piece that looks like a bone handle that was cut?I have no clue what the rest is if anything at all. I have more pictures to add too and will continue updating as I find them.

Hi al425... IMO, these look like what you might expect to find in a late-1800s to mid-1900s location. I've seen statues like this before... they are glass (maybe porcelain), circa 1900 or so. The one stone looks somewhat like a tooth but I'd expect a tooth to have roots. The last item looks like melted metal or broken stone.
You might want to post these in "Today's Finds" or "What is It?" for further information. (This forum is for fur trade artifacts.)

I agree it honestly looks like debris from an early 19 hundreds occupation of either that area or your home
