Help identifying native American artifact

[ChristySchoolcraft]

Can someone please help me with identifying these? I found these in the same cave where several pieces of flint and arrowheads were also found, one of them was dug up and the other one was dug up in a old fire pit in the cave! U can tell which one was damaged more in the picture. I would be grateful for any thoughts on how old they are & what they are made of or any help finding someone who can identify them! I tested to see if a magnet would stick to them and no magnet sticks!

Not sure, maybe a pair of earrings. I don't think they are Native American.

They look to have rivets on them maybe try a different forum

Could u tell me what u think they might be, cause I don't have any ideal what else they could be. I found them probably 1 1/2-2feet deep in a cave and I found many broken arrowheads and flint an several fully intact arrowheads out of the same panning! I'm new to arrowhead hunting so I don't no where go or what to period! So any tips, advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Possibly the Relic Hunting forum or Today’s Find forum.
My initial thought was earrings, also.
Good luck.

I thought you'd include the arrowheads in the post as well, I should of stated that when I referred you to this forum. Earrings is a good suggestion-I'm wondering if they're a fur trade era or something later and were just lost there by chance.
Just wondering if there is a University or other centre that has a dept. that would know if these are in fact native?
(I'd be a tad thin on details giving exact location or details to any dept though)

Could be silver earrings or trinkets/jewelry; NA used copper and other metals for various purposes dating back thousands of years. Take them to the local university archaeology department for an opinion.
