  1. My First and Only Native American Artifact

    Found this about ten years ago in a mole hill, a couple miles away from where the Cowlitz River spills into the Columbia River. It's extremely small, and as you can see it is an agate. I imagine it was probably used to hunt small game due to its small size. I don't have any idea on the age, and...
  2. 8 1/4" x 2 1/8" INDIAN SPEARPOINT

    Bought this at a Garage Sale out in the country about 15 years ago for $75. I would like to know if the story the guy told me is true about finding them all during the building of Del Webb's Sun City in Georgetown, TX. The centerpiece SPEARPOINT is 8 1/4" x 2 1/8" and no chips or impefections...
  3. 8 1/4" INDIAN SPEARPOINT

    I bought this wooden case of Arrowheads at a Garage Sale out in the country almost 15 years ago. It has a centerpiece SPEARPOINT that is 8 1/4" x 2 1/8" and in perfect condition; no chips and symetry are great. I have no clue what "type" it is, or how old it is, or if the story he...
  4. What is this bullet?

    I found a bullet a few inches down in an old Apache fortress, but I don't know much about it. It's 18.45mm tall and it's a 35 caliber round with a rounded off concave at the base. Any additional info you guys could give me? Like how old is it or which side may have been firing it?

  8. Penny sized Indian Chief, ideas?

  9. Native American Cave, Umpqua N.F. Somewhere up logging road from Swiftwater park?

    When I was hiking the Umpqua trail last year I met a couple who were camping near the Swiftwater park a few miles from Glide Oregon. The girl told me that her father was a lumber jack in these woods 50yrs ago. She gave me the directions for one ancient Indian Village in great detail. The other...

  18. Can anyone identify this?

    Hi, I just found this site and joined. I was hoping someone could help me with identifying this rock and future finds. I found this in Northern MT. My guess would be some kind of Indian hammer, but for a little kid since its so small. It obviously used to have a strap or something tied around...
