OUR FIRST FIND!!!! AX OR MAUL

[Amy Morgan]

My boyfriend and I have looked and looked and finally today with 6hrs of searching we found our very first Indian artifact. Not sure if this is called an ax head or maul but very cool and we were thrilled. The end is still crisp and sharp. Found in NW Missouri

I have been looking for over 40 years and never found an axe. You do know that it will be hard to top that one but I hope you do.

Very nice full grooved ax.

wow, we are very lucky...we just started hunting 5 months ago. Yes told my boyfriend that's hard to beat. thanks!!

Is the end shaped like a cutting blade or is it blunt. I can't tell from photo, just can see some wear pattern on the end. A axe will have a knife like end and a maul will be more of a blunt end. If you can show a photo of the bit end. Great find either way

An Axe as the first find... Holy cow. No flint/chert arrowheads or other tools even?? I couldn't mean congratulations any more than ever!!!

Very nice! I've been hunting for almost 20 years and have yet to find a grooved ax. Certainly there are points to be found there

 

[Amy Morgan]

[Amy Morgan]
