You have a group of natural rocks, plus a fossil and a piece of modern sewer pipe. Keep looking. Look for materials that look different than those.

So, honest to god guys, I'm trying to to be disrespectful.

But, take this example:

And my example:

They look kind of similar, no?

Just give me a break? I've done hours upon hours of research?

I mean, am I wrong here? I don't know? I'm new at this?

None of your finds posted are artifacts. Why would you think the one with penny is a point other that it has a point?

The Alarmy items you've posted (takes too long to wait for oversized pictures to download & then play with image sizer) are unmistakably artifacts. In European archaeological terminology, they are "points." (That is, they taper to points in outline -- a category which has nothing to do with whether or not they were hafted.

The Alarmy examples are awls or borers.

Yours are similar in form, but seem to bde made of very poor materials, making them dubious as artifracts.

FWIW
