Hi all,

I was looking for paleo & archaic implements on a bluff over looking the Mississippi river, which is approximately 100 ft below. My theory was that a couple thousand years ago, the water level was where I was looking, but not sure how credible my theory is...lol. Anyways, I picked up this piece, thinking maybe it was a celt of some kind, put it in my pocket, and then threw it away later thinking it was wishful thinking...which I know happens to newbies alot. That night thinking about it, I was haunted, so the next day, I hiked back up the bluff and grabbed it, and put it in the maybe pile.....would appreciate your insight...lol...don't be afraid to be brutally honest!

Looks like the bit portion of an anciently broken celt to me. Nice find.

Looks like the bit portion of an anciently broken celt to me. Obviously found more use in some manner after being broken. Nice find.
