Misc native artifacts

[Jessmc]

Found over 100 ft from a stream off the James River In Eastern South Dakota (near Huron). Few pieces on top are difficult to show their qualities via photo; more to them than they appear. A bead in the center. Grinding stone. Etc.


Welcome any and all input.

Do you find projectile points and pottery too?

 

[monsterrack]

Can you show us a close up of the bead item ??

 

[Jessmc]

Yes, but no full points and the pottery is in rough shape. Fragments and they are weathered pretty bad (seems like more than just normal dirt ware and tear)

North or south of town?

i like the bead. Not sure the rest are much of anything though.

 

[DigIron2]

looks like a possible mortar on the left?

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Other than the possible Bead I don't see any other artifacts.

 

[Jessmc]

South. Close to Als Place on the east side of 37.

Do you or anyone hunt around Stoney Run?

 

[Jessmc]

By Stoney Run Lake? No, I'm not even aware that was there, honestly. Is it a hot spot? I'm definitely going to check it out now.

Lol, yeah it's pretty close to you.
Unfortunately I wasn't into artifacts when I lived there, but I would imagine any creek that fed the lake would be good too. Not sure the access to the lake either, it was undeveloped back in the early 70's. When I was there you could drive right up to part of it.
