My dad found these in the 1920's in Licking Co., OH. I have had them [and many others] for about 15 yrs and have no idea what they are, what age, what condition or anything else. Can someone enlighten me?

Thanks, Tim

My bad! It looked like you had rotated the piece 180 degrees rather than flipped it for the second pic. Some readings list these as 6,000BP others list them 6,000BC. BP is before present and BC, of course, before Christ. Archeologist seem to have trouble deciding which initials to use and it causes complication in determining how old artifacts are. I have read that BP is inaccurate. It's a long drawn out argument but in a nut shell BP makes 1959 the start of time. Nice piece!!
Haha either way older than me ;)
