Found some nice points and more pottery than I ever have at one time so I was really happy about that! The large item I'm not sure about maybe preform axe or celts? Let me know what you guys think!

Ok thanks sohio!I forgot to post this one yesterday....it is kinda odd shaped and one side is really smooth maybe just unfinished? And if you notice the right side in the 1st picture is more worn and concaved than the left side.

i cant imagine why it would be smooth on one side it looks well worked on both sides and youd think if it were in water it would be smooth all over ....im not too familiar with your point types but that looks like an adena dickson and why its concave on one side could be from resharpening or it just turned out that way for the knapper or you know ancients were pretty smart maybe they wanted it concave there for a specific utilitarian purpose.

I'm almost positive its morrow mountian 60 percent of the points I find in my area are big sandy's or morrow mountians. That's awesome thoughts tho thanks for advice!

yeah you would be right morrow mountain
 
looks like an abrading stone used for dulling the edge of the piece you are knapping.
