OK,,,Last year in Jan., while scouting places to take the dog for swims in the summer time. I found some pieces of flint on the shore of Douglas lake. Everything I have read said that you will NOT find a point on Douglas. No biggy,,just looking for swimming holes. Well if you know the lake, you know that TVA drains/lowers it to basically its original depth in the winter. So yesterday I went back to the same place to run Buddy and just take a look see. I have drawn a picture of the area w/notes. What do you guys make of it? I`m going to try to get back there before the lake comes back,,maybe the good stuff is still there? The first pic. is of a piece of pottery with an impression init. The second pics are what I think are all worked pieces of flint,,the next are flakes and nodules,,,OMG the flakes were everywhere,,I picked up everything I saw. There are hundreds of small/tiny pieces. I know NOTHING about pottery, but there was a lot more of this stuff out there,,this is just a little of everything. It rained on us for 2 hours,,kept washing things out of the dirt/burnt clay nodules. What could have been there? Why sooooooooo many flint flakes? I`m begging for feedback.
Thank you all
