here is a bone game piece or ornament that I found summer of 08
I like the patina and simple but tasteful engraving on it
the first image is actual size or very close to it

post something cool here for the purpose of discussion, information, or bragging

This is an excellent thread, thanks fellas. How about that giant pipe. Any ideas on how it was used or why it would be so big and flat?

this is my best "hand fitted" made piece
it has a thumb grove on 1 side and feels great when held like that.

I post these two together since I found them a couple of inches apart. The point is paleo and made of crytsal quartz. The tiny oval is also crystal. Not sure what it would have been made for. It is only 7/16" long and maybe 3/32" thick or less.

great show everyone,37 you have some explaining to do.lol.first, that fractured base dove is a beauty.and the clovis woodoggy!!!! :thumbsup:

Thanks Flash, ask me a question...fire away. If you wondering if I found them, I didn't they were both purchases. The fractured base dove is from In. it's got a Davis coa g9. The Clovis was found by the landowner near Pt. Pleasant WV , he sold it to a friend, and I bought it from him earlier this year. It' good.


appreciate the comments folks.

I have to agree the fractured base doves are my favorites too, it's not a 3+ inch bragging dove but it's a sweet piece. " thx for posting the pix" anytime bro, have yourself some good holidays.

Wow there are some cool things on here. You guys know more about the Indian stuff than I do but this knife is what I consider one of my better Indian finds. It's about 3 1/2" long. You can't tell in the pic but it has a slight curve to it.
