Some of us enjoy what he posts....
The smaller blade does look like cooked Burlington. Very nice points. FIY, Indians also cooked their rock they just did it under a fire and not in a turkey roaster like I do or a kiln.
Although if there had been a Walmart around the corner I sure they would have bartered for a roaster as it isn't as much work!!
On a side note about rock and the types of rock. I found some rock at a source spot out west that is spot on for Flintridge. Took it to the knap in at Flintridge and every one I showed it to said it was Flintridge material so I think there are rock formations across the US that produce the same rock only it goes by a regional name instead of the same name. JMHO
Very nice Mogi !
Nice ones! Great size too!
I enjoy what he posts as well. My point is, if his feelings are hurt, why continue?
I've had some of my nicest pieces questioned, therefore I hardly post any of them.
Bow Only: for those of us that does have that, "common Knowledge" that you and others have would you cite a reference so I can read and study a bit more. I am sure others on here would like to learn more as well.
To me that is what this site is about, view, study and learn.
OK Experts - I will let YOU TELL ME what i have. All of the material that is shown in these pictures are from within 20 miles of each other. AND YES, it is from Missouri. All of the pieces you see were collected from my girl and i in 2 visits. I myself do not believe they heat treated that far back in accordance to the Beaver Lake, but i wasn't there. What i do know is that if you look at the wide range of material,tips,bases,pieces and whole pieces we pulled out of there you will see material that was found in plowed fields that are almost the exact color and material as the points. However i will leave it up to you - THE EXPERTS! Please, let me know what you think as i would like to know as well. I also zoomed in a little on the Beaver Lake to show some of the heaviest patina and NO BRAINER evidence that i can provide that it is DEF real. I dont care how good of a knapper and fake patina applier you are - YOU ARE NOT GOING TO MIMICK THAT!
