Maybe not as productive as other peoples spots but a solid day for me was hoping for one full but it got hot and I was getting sloppy so I left before I started missing things
Got two pieces of pottery, cord wrapped shell tempered
What would have been a beautiful point very thin and well made, was really hoping a base would come up
And finally a fat ugly tip haha

Fun hunt. It is always interesting to see the stone cuts on old bone. Be a fun thread to see a collection of tool marks.
Stay cool!
 

good finds.

The point that tip was from looks like it would have been nice.

Where you in the crops hunting or what?
 

Crops have been out for a couple months, it’s been 100+ and bone dry, no rain to expose new artifacts, this spot is on a bluff, digging through the kitchen trash it appears. Here’s a burnt section of bone I also recovered this weekend from a larger animal deer or Buffalo that has cut marks, they are a little harder to see. Good proof of human activity vs animals dying naturally in this spot.

Ever notice how they always knew to go for that bone marrow . Smart.
 

Added a broke, probably a jug hill, and a deer bone with cut marksView attachment 2038388View attachment 2038389
I love the kitchen dump stuff, especially the bones with butcher marks. I was fortunate enough to help on an archaeological dig in my teens. It was a pilot whale skeleton and the butchering marks really hit home. It was a lot of food for a big group of people. They were probably excited about a high fat feast and likely everyone in the group helped process it. Pretty cool stuff! Nice finds!
