interesting broke bone awl

[larson1951]

this is another find of my "boss" john
he said he walked by this broke bone awl and did not bother to flip it since he doesn't use a flppin' stick much as many but it is still cool

hey hey quito and monster

thank you and i figured someone would chime in with 'M' for mandans......it is the first thing that jogged my mind................
.............until 10 secs later i said to myself , "oh wait a minute, they never had an english alphabet"...............but yup joel it sure comes to mind

 

[flintdigger]

I agree that is a great piece

 

[old digger]

Do you suppose that those ''M'' etchings represent the nock on an arrow?

Nice save on that fine artifact.
