Microliths

We find these every now and again. Microliths are small tools, in this case made from Quartz. How about ya'll?

We have a LOT of microlithic tools in our woodland tool assemblage. Drills, gravers, tiny scrapers, etc. Have many but don't have pics. Even veteran collectors can miss these small tools. I don't LOL They are some of my favorite artifacts, along with other tools.

Like Tom I too have quite a few micro tools but I don't have pics of any. I have a couple Woodland sites that produce lots of Micro Bladelets and Flake Tools.
