I got out for a few hours on Weds afternoon and hit a field that had just been planted in corn last Thursday and then had a very hard rain on it. It was washed down very flat and there was a lot of pieces exposed. I found 10 trayable points but nothing really killer. There is one nice Stemmed Point made from Flint Ridge that's not bad and the black Pine Tree would have a killer if it hadn't been damaged. I was hoping that was a Spokeshave in the side but it's not. I did find a nice big black Flint Celt with a good polished blade.
All of this was found in a spot I call the Utilized Flake Site since about 75% to 80% of the flakes you find will have a worked edge and today was no different. Every flake you see in that group photo has a worked edge and some of them more than one.
These pictures are of the days finds in the first 4 pictures. The next one shows the field and you see how flat it has washed down. The next picture shows you why. That is not a pond, that is a low spot in the field that is full of water from the storm. That are was dry last Sunday. There's also an in situ of the Flint Celt and a few of the cruder Knives
I'll have some more in situs in the next post.
