I hit it this morning as soon as I got off of work and was at the site by 6:00 AM. It was still dark so I put on the old trusty Headlamp and went a crawlin'. Man, that ground was cold and frosty and frozen for the first inch or so, but I managed to pull out one killer today. I didn't find any points at all, just a couple of tips, a crude Blank, a Bone Bead with both ends broke off, some decent Pottery Rim Shards(sorry no pics of those), and my killer which is a very nice Drilled Tooth.
What a way to start off the year with a perfect Drilled Tooth. The hole was just barely showing and if I hadn't been crawling I probably never would have seen it. I tired pulling on it gently but it was frozen in the ground so I had to get down real close, cup my hands over it, and breathe on it for a little bit to thaw the ground before it would come loose. I left about 15 minutes later because for one it was way to cold to be crawling on frozen ground, and my wife had just called and had locked herself out of the house barefoot. lol
No in situ since it still dark when I found it.
The first picture is everything else I found minus the Pottery and the rest are the Tooth. It is exactly 1 inch long and probably a Coyote, Fox, or Dog Canine Tooth. Very good polish on this one.
