Pictures of artifacts please

I am starting this thread in the hopes that the members of this forum will flood it with pictures of all the various artifacts they have found and or collected over time. I figured this thread could provide novice hunters and collectors with a vast wealth from which to learn from and compare to.

I thank you all for helping further my education as well as others.

Most anything I post, y'all have probably already seen, so first off, apologies.

A nice little adze I found about 30 years ago while waiting out a rain in my truck. I was just sitting there looking out the window and noticed a little white spot starting to show in the mud. After the rain stopped, I hopped out and dug this out. Still one of my favorite pieces.

I can see why it’s a favorite of yours and that purple background which I hardly ever see really makes it pop ...great artifact and display

Nothing is considered a repeat as far as this thread is concerned. Thanks for the share.

Found these not 10 feet from where I found the adze. The road had been scraped, exposing the edge you see here.



Dug out a little cone that had been salvaged from the poll end of a broken celt.



Of course, i kept scraping with my digger and out pops a heavily resharpened Arredondo within a couple of inches of the cone.

Found in two pieces in a Manasota midden site. Hole appears to be mostly natural worm hole but I am sure it was used. Possibly broken ceremoniously as 99% of pottery is "killed".

Is that a Shark/ megladon tooth ? Sure looks like one ... how could would it be if it was a necklace
