More artifacts (hammers?)

[dakotagrappler]

I have been lugging these around for years. Again found most of these as a kid rock picking in North Dakota.

Any info on these would be appreciated....

Do these actually have some value?


I keep them because I thiught they were cool.

Very nice grooved artifacts. I am still hunting some hard stone artifacts. I flip every stone I see. Yes they have value. Google grooved hand mauls and see what comes up.

hey hey grappler
those are nice
imo #'s 2 and 5 are horse tethers and #'s 1, 3, are hafted hammers which were used for building earth lodges or for breaking buffalo bones to get marrow
#4 possible hand mano

Really cool pieces. Certainly they have value, no idea how much, but they're awesome pieces.

on second thought #5 might be a hammer
heck they all might be but i don't think so..........just sayin'

but they are nice thats for sure
ever think if you were about a mile from you truck and you found four or five of them?

I find allot of different names between north and south on artifacts. Our hammer stones are much different than yours.
