a rule that applies most of the time:

if you can't tell if it is an artifact then it probably isn't

the last images show a piece of splintered bone

now don't be sorry.
nothing wrong with asking questions as long as you get ticked off when someone says 'rock'

we all have asked the same type questions on our first few outings..............i know that i sure did

 

[gwhitson]

buy u a repo and look at the workmanship then u will know what to look for

 

[unclemac]

you have a good eye for size and shape...but you just don't seem to be in the right place...where are you looking?

 

[rivernomad44]

thank yall so much I have found a little size collectioof really nice artifact I just dont have the resources such as good field to hunt and its very very frustrating I work butt off and completely dedicated most of my time to learning and collecting I dont want repos even though I know they can be useful I'd rather hold an authentic flake, I didn't want to ask but im at wits end, if anybody could help me out with broken pieces or anything it would greatly be admired and appreciated

send me your mailing add. and il send you some flint and some artifacts

 

[natchitoches]

here is how i hunt,
learn what flint looks like.
look for flint flakes.
any where you find flakes.
is a good spot. a hunting camp or a village, or the site the flint comes from.
stay near the water within 1 mile anyway's.(river,creeks,springs)
i do it this way because so many times the point is just barly showing.
you harly ever find a point laying on top of the ground. where you can see the whole shape.
look for flakes, pick them all up. you be glade you did one day.
when you reach down to get what you think for sure is just a flake, and a 5 in. point pulls out.

much love everybody thank you

Every once in a blue moon one will be laying on top usually flat on its side. But most of mine I pull from the earth cause only a bit was showing. You have to find flakes so you know what color to look for. I have seen some of your pics of some nice points mostly quartz.
