Since we seem to have some very knowledgeable people here on Indian artifacts I have a few things that may or may not be anything. I have gotten conflicting opinions and I am not sure myself. Some days I think they are and others not so much.... If they are not anything I am not going to be all hurt so dont worry about being too kind!
All of these finds were in Missouri about 50 miles west of St. Louis.
The first item I found in a creek bed were there was allot of Indian sites within a close proximity. This was actually found right with the broken point in a bank. (I am posting the broken point just so in case it helps) Its very hard to get a good pic of this one. The stone is not normal in the creek but it seems like it could have been natural. Its about 1.5 inches long and 3/4 of an inch wide.
The second item with a hole was found on the same creek but about a mile away. It was directly across from a site where I find tons of chips and have found a spade and a couple of "hafted scrappers". In this same bank I found allot of other artifacts that are valid but not sure on this one. The main thing I have with it is what would it be? Its made out of a soft stone but has a piece of chert in it right on the edge of the hole. Its about 3 inches long, 2 inches wide and is concave on the bottom side.
Thanks for any help!
