Saw the biggest known to date Keokuk Axe Head the other day at work! It weighed in at over 13 pounds on our
certified scales...I can't remember the gentleman's name but He's a Major collector
of Iowa Indian artifacts...He brought down a Beautiful point a few weeks back that was a gorgeous red
color. My boss took a photo of it, I'll see if I can get it and post a photo....
 

Here's a couple photos of the point

 


Saw the Guy today who brought the Item above in at work. I asked him what it was again
and he said it was a Clovis Point. I guess I should pay more attention when people say
something. He said a "Clovis Point" is what they used at this time period to kill the larger
animals like the Wolly Mamouth.
