We need better pictures, current picture doesn't show any signs of being artifacts, rather just rocks...

The Sand Creek Massacre took place in Southeastern Colorado, no where near Loveland.

They have the appearance of what is commonly known as a classic Colorado Leaverite...

Of cour they aren't finish.i found them on what's left of a encampment. By the pits. There are some half finished knives and heads. Some flint and its all almost covered up by progress.my guess is they made their last stand weapons there.

How do you connect these to the Sand Creek Massacre?

You can't, they are just rocks. If I kept ever rock I found looking like them I would have thousands of them...

I don't think so. Looks like standard broken rocks. Don't give up, just keep looking.

I will offer the same advice I offered on one of your other threads. If you truly believe you have stone tools, axe heads, or anything else fashioned by man as a tool, please have the items evaluated and authenticated by a competent professional.

Personally, I think you have a bunch of rocks.

We have an Indian artifact section here. Most axe heads will show exquisite pecking and polishing and style depending upon the culture. Welcome to Treasure net!!!!
