New Salt Water Finds —- Cape Cod Bay

[MAMucker]

3 Ocean Tumbled Prizes.

First one is very nice broad quartz knife. It seems to have a rind of unfinished cortex left on the base. Pics didn’t capture this very well, but it has a pebble industry look to it.











The next one - a Reamer or Drill, is also a pebble industry tool made from Marblehead Rhyolite. The material (like most artifacts found in this region) was likely made from washed cobble found in the bay. This one also has visible cortex left on the Paddle-end and on the Bit-tip.








And finally - a small quartz “expedient” knife blade. It’s not fancy, but it’s for sure an artifact.








Thanks for looking! Comments appreciated!

Nice ones. I like what appears to be usage wear on the tip of the black one.

Edit: Looking back, I see where you said you thought it was cortex.

Like that first one. I can't imagine knapping that material.
