Florida Frame #12

[H.P.]

Pic. 1 is a frame of different bone artifacts, some are deer bone, others are made from bird bone, ( the longest are most likely from the Great Blue Herron)...Pic 2 are engraved dorsal ends of hairpins, kinda makes you wonder if microliths were used for the engraving....Pic 3 are examples of different shaped dorsal ends and all have been treated...Hairpin breakage is extremely high due to their fragile nature, other items consist of weapon points, bi points, composite pieces, etc, each one is a study in itself, thanks
for lookin.

Those are some really nice pins. The engraved ones are special. Any made of ivory?

Just awsome, I can only imagine how rare those are.
Thanks

I have never found complete bone artifacts. Thanks HP!

Absolutely amazing. Some of those lines are as finely spaced as your fingerprints. Unreal!

Deer leg bone, and I’m assuming the round one is another kind of animal or bird or something bone....I have never seen an ivory hairpin, ...if a N/A ever made one from ivory, I recon it would have to be Mammoth ivory, these are not paleo.

It's one of those pics that one can just stare at-for a longtime and see even more beauty in each one. Thanks for sharing them.

My favorite artifact has always been the next one I picked up or coached a friend on finding and especially seeing the stuff I haven’t or don’t find. I know they were used here also, but even more scarce, it seems. these are going to be hard for me to find a topper.
The engraved designs is so pure and simple. In my minds eye they are the most special because of there personalization. They are so different than flutes and stems and notches, only better.
I’m about 5 hours past my bed time now dreaming on these but who’s counting?

Well said Fat, my sentiments exactly, that’s why I wanted a diverse collection..However, my point collection suffered in my search for scarce items..Can’t have everything, Lol, stay safe old friend.
