Frame #58

[H.P.]

Florida bone artifacts, part A...Gonna do this frame in parts...first are snapped weapon points with pitch attached, interesting pieces...Next is I don’t know what, the interesting thing about it are the flint or stone abrader tool marks, a contrast from modern metal marks, and helpful for those trying to spot fake stuff, thanks for lookin.

So the hollow bones were sleeves that held solid points and not the points themselves even though pointed ?

The one shown in pics.3-4-5 is not a weapon point but rather a tool that was most likely inserted in a wooden handle for the purpose of I don’t know what...There’s not much in the literature about these types of tools and such.

Great frame once again Hal. Do have any idea of what animal the jaw bone is from?

Looking at the bones the first thing that popped into mind was they a Spile look to them. Wonder if they might of been used for blood letting, or getting liquid/juice/sap out of a tree/fruit?

Ok that engraved jawbone is amazing. I will go out on a limb & offer you 5 bucks for it? I've never seen anything like it.
