Getting my collection reassembled (pic heavy)

[chase2]

For the last ten years I have traveled around the states for work. This year I stopped traveling and retrieved my collection, and am working on reassembling it. Last month I went to an artifact show here in Indiana, and displayed some of the collection. Its a work in progress and will take a while to put it all together. Here is what I put on display, most all the artifacts are from Colorado, but there are various states as well represented.

Thanks Rock! That is a rock, lol, The lithic is called Tiger chert , the quarry is in southwestern Wyoming. This is one that I am not sure that I can classify it as an artifact. My thoughts on that is that it was a perforator/drill/ graver/awl. take your pick. There is no secondary flaking on it, and only shows use wear on one edge. it is triangular in shape.

I notice just about every detail so I have to ask, which item did you win the ribbon on?

The ribbon is for outstanding display. But I am sure it was more for me displaying for the first time. But still is neat that it was there 50th anniversary artifact show.

Thanks for asking!
