Someone posted recently on Fort Ancient artifacts and I figured I'd throw up a pic of my stuff. I found the center shell gorget unbroken if you can believe that. It is amazing it survived considering how fragile it is.

very nice, you guys down along the ohio are lucky to have those big ft ancient sites, up my way they are rare
 
Very nice artifacts LostLake. Excellent Triangles. That gorget is super. Thanks for sharing them with us.
 
Nice Ft Ancient points Lostlake88. I see you have some nice serrated types as well.

Paleojoe and I hit a Ft Ancient site today and I found a really nice Triangle Point myself. I see if I can get a picture of it and post it later.
 
Nice frame Lostlake, some really nice triangles in there, I like the Jacks Reefs too.
 
Beautiful material Lostlake. We have the triangles here but they seem to mingle with hamiltons and guntersville. Those are really nice. Luck was with you on that gorget :thumbsup:

Nice points man! What the heck have you been doing? You never return my calls. Holler at me and we will get out and do something. I REALLY like that little jack's reef....................can I have it?

Very nice finds and lots of them. Thanks for sharing.
 
The corner-notched point in the top left corner looks for all the world like an Early Archaic one.

Did Ft. Ancient make stuff like that as well ? :icon_scratch:

Those two corner notched points are archaic, I just had them in the frame for some reason.
