some one asked me to post these about ten days agothey are all surface finds fro the last 20 yrs i think john and bruce found one of those birds heads the first one looks a bit like a horse to me
te third image is the leading broke off end of a game piece called a snow snake (i think)
the stick i found about 15 years ago only one inch from being drove over and crushed by my pickup.....
..i don't know what kind of animal is etched in the middle (any ideas?)...but what i think is cool is the picture....
on the bottom which looks to me like a papoose on a cradle board with hand reaching out and a feather in its head (any ideas?)
my favorite is the piece by the penny looks like a person wit his hands in the air and a bow and arrow drawn and pointed at him or her??
one last thing about the stick: i have to get a shot of the back side as it has a full herringbone design incised into the back side....
it is cut real deep....you can see the same herringbone pattern on the small end from just behind the (badger?) towards the thin end
the reason you cannot see it on the very inch and a half of the narrow end (on both sides) is because it is worn away thru use wear....
....it apparently was held in the hand by the end for an awful lot of years...i have ideas as to the purpose of this piece...but that is all they are....ideas
here is one more i ran across
