These are but a very few of what I have been finding on 4 sites here in Dekalb County, Ga. Found some axes and a couple of interesting knives I will post soon, including a neat quartzite ax with great form and what I think is a basalt knife about 6 1/2 inches in length with excellent form. No camera/pictures so the reason for scans.
The gem point next to the dime is the smallest I have ever found. It is well worked, wedge shaped to a lethal point. I am finding a lot of what I think may be micro blades, points with triangular cross sections, and a couple of other repeated non-standard shapes and designs I have not recognized as tools or points untill recently. I have to crawl around on hands and knees to find some of this stuff. Some of the points I am finding look like minature stealth fighters with very similar angels and design. I have three of these in several sizes almost identical in shape and design. I will post more as time allows and will shoot some video of these as I cannot scan many to really show dimension and shape. I have been finding these items since I was a kid about 40 years ago but more standard stuff, not like these strange items I have recognized and been finding lately. Finding some of the best stuff now.
Also saw the posts about hunting streams. Found some stuff coincidentally but never really looked until reading those posts. I went hunting in the closest stream bed down the hill from my house and found a ton of stuff some in perfect condition. Posted some pics of this separately here. I have a couple hundred more pieces I have found recently in maybe 30 hours of hunting total. Not sure of heritage of many of these so any suggestions are welcome. Thanks, mark001.
I will have to load a few files at a time here...
