Let's See Everyones Best Personal Finds

(I was asked to show some of my older pieces so I'm going to bump up a few of my posts so they can see them rather than post them again)




I saw on another post where bblaha had asked about my best find so I thought I start a thread so everyone could post theirs as well.

So here's a few of my best personal finds. Now let's see yours.

Wow! Can't compete those are amazing but here's some of my favorite, the small one is a tiny bird point you can see where it's been worked all along the bottom. The big one is pretty stained from the creek but I like the look it gives it

[bblaha]

Gator boy that translucent one is awesome! What Area did you find that in? Water or land Is what I'm asking

[larson1951]

[GatorBoy]

Well Its deffirent. I posted what I thought my be a bone point one time and you used that piece as a reference as to what one.. in your words " may look like"

 

[larson1951]

this bird is the only one out of about 7 or 8 that still has the handle...a gemall the rest have broke handles

 

[larson1951]

this one of my all time favorites

it is a person standing with his hands up in the air..........
.........because there is a drawn bow with arrow pointed at him.
..i wish i could find the rest of it

 

[larson1951]

there is another bone point....a square one that had 4 tails
when found it 20 yrs ago i picked it up not knowing what it was...i remember one of the tails was cracked and fell off...i looked for it for an hour and could not find it

 

[GatorBoy]

That is some good preservation on some of that bone. Any Idea of the age? Some looks fairly new. 1800's ?

 

[larson1951]

the last occupation was before 1700 when the small pox wiped out the population
i will find out what the approximate date of that was....then i will post it for you gator

 

[GatorBoy]

You have some wonderfully preserved bone for your area. Great stuff!
