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.

A 3.25 inch hardstone Plummet from Cayuga County, central New York State. Ritchie dates it to his 'Frontenac Phase' of the mid-Archaic. Practically identical to the plummet pictured in his The Archeology of New York State.

What’s the story on the pipe ? Really cool and the pic looking down into if you look closely it looks like there’s a creepy face ... obviously just the shadows and light but still crazy looking lol

I found the pipe in the wall of a shell midden that was washed out. Got out of a canoe, went to the wall and plucked it out.
It was upside down and there was, maybe still, some charcoal in the bottom.

Here's a hammerstone or sumpinornuther made for use with the right or left hand. The arrows show the working spot that has become angled by the hands natural tendency to pronate. It has four indentions on 4 of the 6 sides. One of the first artifacts I found.
