First Hunt of 2011

Well, I got out all day and came back with this variety for my collection.

The pottery was found in the same small spot as the Triangles which I guess puts them Woodland Era. All of this is from several farms in the eastern Pennsylvania area.
The Hammerstone or Chopper seems to have scratches on it...whether the Native did it or not...is not for me to decide. I was really excited to find the Celt though broken, I really love it.

I went out with one thing in mind....enjoy the day and try to find something Ive never found before. I came away with both!

Would anyone out there know the oldest item in this photo...just so I can tell my 9 year old son.

Thanks guys and gals. I hope your searching is enjoyable as mine.

Nice finds. I like the quartz scrapers, as well as the points. The pottery is neat as well.

Your oldest pieces should be the stemmed and notched points, not the late Woodland triangles. You have a broken dark point with a stem that looks like it could be mid to late Archaic.
