Found these about 10yrs ago. Hope you enjoy! Any ideas what the banded slate object is? I was told it is called an Gorget. What did they use it for? Thanks for any info

AWESOME! Those are some real killers! The first pic. is a nice classic Table Rock and the gorget was used as a status symbol and was worn around the neck. You have points from all dif. time periods. Thanks for sharring and I hope this helps.
