Finally found some things to post. Been pretty barren around these parts lately, not much to find because things are just not changing and moving enough. Even the beaches have not been great!

Found all these small items on the river bank near a midden where I live. The bone is hollowed out, maybe deer?
The small oblong round pieces are hard like stone or old animal bone. Found one tiny vertebrae, a small piece of chert and some other things.

There have been some whelks in there from time to time, most do not show the patina though, just moss and and algae. All look like they were manually taken apart -worked I think you call it -but not much patina.
