We had some really heavy rains move through yesterday afternoon so I got hold of a buddy and we hit one of our favorite sites that has a Ft Ancient village on one ridge and an Archaic spot on another. The FA site didn't give us much, I only found one small Triangle, a broken base off a Triangle, and a piece of Deer Antler and he didn't find a thing. The Archaic ridge was better to us though.

He found 2 nice Hafted Scrapers and a few Scrapers. I found 3 Points, a nice little round based Knife, 2 Hafted Scrapers, a nice Scraper/Knife combo Tool, a crude Flint Celt, a Flint Hammerstone, and a very interesting piece of pecked and ground stone that I believe is a Plummet preform. It's a piece of green Granite and would have been very nice if finished. I also found 3 bases to Points.

I got a few nice in situs but I didn't get any pics of his finds.

You had a great hunt. Looks like good stuff. I LOVE the piece in the 2nd row from the top, 3rd from the left.
 

That green granite is spectacular, I've never seen material like it. Thanks for sharing that in particular.
 

Very nice finds, Steve! Like 1320 mentioned, I love the green granite piece, as well.

It reminds me of the material I found on my broken adze...

I found mine on the other side of the Ohio River though (KY).

Thanks for sharing!
