Nice ... I'm guessing banded slate ... Are these personal finds ?

 

[Igyjastabay]

Personal finds? Yep I wish. This was found in a in a field 150 yeas ago.

What was it used for?

What was it used for?

No one really knows. The majority believe it was a type of weight or counter balance for the atalatl; a long bore stick with a point attached used for hunting mega fauna. I think the aformentioned is rubbish. It was worn in the hair.

This is certainly a very odd find.

I'd love to see what this is.

I do disagree with putting the statement "Banner" in the title though

Something like this must be viewed by others first, allow us to nominate finds...

Otherwise you're throwing only your opinion in - your expectations.

Sorry, but your post makes me want to slap you.

Why spread this out? Give us the story.

That explains it, this guy is brain dead.

 

[Beezly]

Naples is pretty reasonable actually, a guy could do worse.

Terry, show something on this forum instead of being the&^% you are. You have trolled me with metal detecting for years. Your a weird dude.

I'm not sure I want to risk your wrath, but, without a size comparison, it's harder to make a guess as to what it was used for. The fact that you titled this "REEL banner", Of course my first thought went to fishing REEL, or Banner stone.
Anyway, it's a beautiful piece. I can see it being used to hold lengths of rawhide, or sinew.
As a woman, I cannot understand how it would be used as a ornament in the hair, but ??, I'm not a fancy kind of woman.

 

[villagenut]

well I live in Florida too......but I am no way near as rude as those rich folks in the naples area.

You said no one really knows what it was used for. YOU can make an educated guess, same as I can.
My post suggested a size comparison.

And why are you quoting yourself??
That's like talking to yourself...
