A few pieces

[Older The Better]

Went out on Tuesday found a couple bases, another pottery sherd, part of a drill and a buffalo rib section

The bases, first one I missed at first trying not have a million pics but it is worked both sides

The pottery plain but maybe someday I’ll have enough pieces to make a pot

Next at first I thought it was some weird blob of worked stone but looking closer there’s a break where there was probably a projection like a drill or punch

Last I’m going with buffalo rib, it was maybe a foot down on an very productive site, size would make it a cow or buffalo but the thing that I think puts it over the top are the cut marks

I’ll throw one more in, another section of bone that is quite thick probably buffalo again but if I’m not mistaken shows a spiral break and a divot…. My interpretation is the divot is where they struck the bone to crack it open for the marrow

Buffalo rib bone is a pretty cool find. Saw one found in Oklahoma that had been engraved with a guy on horseback on it. Unusual, and no idea why they did that, but it was a legitimate find.

That would be a very cool find, I’d love to find some kind of artwork.

I always love looking at the details in your pictures; very nice material in your area.

Thanks I know I probably do more pictures than I need for brokes and such. I take atleast 12 pictures of each artifact I find to record it. My hope is someday I’ll leave as much information as possible about what I have where it came from and what I think it is, so the next person can enjoy it or at the least understand what they are working with and hopefully make a better decision than tossing it in the trash like the other thread.
