Very cool finds and a real good day

 

[NC field hunter]

I think you have one heck of a spot and a good eye! Nice hour and a half bro!!

 

[Tnmountains]

Nice. Really nice big piece. Are you thinking blank or preform? Good day out!

 

[painterx7]

I'm thinking preform I think the blanks are bigger but not sure and thanks NC I got lucky after not being lucky at lunch I have some more pieces I need ID on

 

[painterx7]

In the last three photos not the black piece the other two is that a hafted hatchet ?

That big yellow piece is cool! My dad is here for a visit so it the flea market & Bass Pro in the morning and canoeing/hunting the rest of the evening. As I always say, "tomorrow I will find the piece that will pay off my student loans," lol! It's gonna be the day...

 

[painterx7]

The afternoon sun brings me more artifacts I hope you find 5 cumberlands tomorrow ... If you do I will take one lolol

 

[hbrown22]

If I find five, I will give you one all I have to do is show a pic to my 9 yr old and she'll find them. You may have to use your imagination though, lol.

 

[painterx7]

Lol I know how kids work if I find 3 ill give you one

Dude! Don't take my word as the absolute. I think you found a paleo point. I think that is a hell gap. The axe looks like a flaked version of this guilford axe my dad found years ago.



Nice day for sure!!

I was thinking ax the point I was thing the same but it was in a plowed field and I think it was damaged idk what to think anymore but I feel like the items I found today are from a paleo site I need to find out who can tell me I handle lots of flint and I can tell what's old and not old some of these items seem very old first two pics not old second two old idk anymore I have to many questions lol

 

[painterx7]

Well pics swapped first two old second two not old

Thanks bro I like hearing that from you !!!!

 

[larson1951]

that is a great batch my friend
very very cool man

 

[painterx7]

Mr Larson you seem to know a lot about artifacts where can I find out how old these pieces are ? I touch a lot of chert and I feel like I can feel what's old idk what do you think or should I take them to a university ?

 

[painterx7]

Can u see a resemblance the point tips are woodland time period and the Clovis is what it is the flake knife flaking looks like the Clovis .... I guess I will never stop asking questions just like my kids lol but I tell them that's how you learn

I know exactly how you feel. I joined T-net thinking I had a pretty good grasp on what was what. It didn't take Long for my "knowledge" to become confusion. I finally drew my own conclusion about not only artifacts, but life in general. Human beings, as a whole, don't know $h!t, about nothin! Lol! Take my word and anyone else's as a starting point for launching your own study. You know your area better than most. Your conclusion, based on your own research will probably be pretty accurate. Cool stuff you drag to the table dude!!

 

[painterx7]

I guess lol I find 0 pottery 0 banners unless there are such things as ruff tie on banners but I hunt the paleo who had no pottery and no fancy banners but there are so many time periods in wash out gullies and creeks as far as flint goes when I get it figured out ill let you know haha I got a sick kid keeping me up tonight ;(

 

[GatorBoy]

Nice finds!
I'm really liking that flaked axe head.
