Seems to me someone needs to invent a "rock friendly" plow ! Better than not finding anything though...keep lookin!

That's the problem we have here, the plows from the timber company destroy the majority of our finds

The plows break a lot agreed, but in my area we only
have cow trails, erosion, & river & lake shorelines to hunt.
I have heard the old-timers talk of hooking whole clay pots with their plows, while plowing cotton & corn, also of whole skeletons left after a flood exposed them, but now we have cattle pastures & meadows.

Bedwards heartbreakers just make the whole ones all that more special.I know from living in Illinois that plows take there tolls on artifacts.Especially the axe heads.However here in Maine I still find way more broken tips than whole pieces.Here I have never found an artifact in a field.It seems where ever a volume of pieces are found due to a large number of inhabitants that they either broke a lot during making them or they brought their kill to a central area in the village and the tips are whats left.Other causes broken in use and frost breaks.Either way they are bitter-sweet but if nothing else they are reassurance you are in the right spot.Besides wont you be happy when you find the other pieces......Jay
