FIRST INDIAN POTTERY SHARDS!

[BeachComber7]

With some guidance from a new friend, I was able to locate and see for the first time, what Indian pottery from about AD 900-1000 looks like and feels like in modern times. The attachment is of the pieces I found along with some tiny fauna from the area. This was very exiting for me, as I am a newby when it comes to Indian artifacts.
I hope to find an arrowhead one of these days!

Thank you all for your notes and Kiana7 for your motivational words! It was my third time out before I finally found a small piece and that was with some guidance. Once I found the first piece, I knew what to look for. You got it RiverRat ! I was just telling someone else when I find some more stuff, especially arrowheads, I want to put them in some of those frames!

this might give you even a little more incentive. I found these items when they cleared the parking lot there
