TODAYS NATIVE NORTH AMERICAN SITE FINDS BY HARDY

[Hardy]

HI ALL , ONLY GOT OUT FOR A HOUR , YET DID FIND THIS COPPER WOMANS HAIR TUBE AND A NICE

PIECE OF KETTLE METAL THAT WAS USED PROBABLY FOR REPAIRS OR ORNAMENTS BY THE NATIVES

 

[Iron Patch]

Hair tube or cannon friction primer? (I'm not well versed on Indian artifacts)

 

[cedarratt]

The Friction primers I have seen were small they almost looked like Keys or the things off old sardine cans...

I have seen them that long, thinner, but maybe just tighter wrapped.

lol Iron patch love your posts and its out of a spot that produces janglers and trade rings , this also may be a bead tube that

was being prept for cutting into small copper beads to be worn on clothing or for a necklace. the natives got very good with their

copper work and brass and lead work by the mid 1800's , why the pateana didnt show in the pictures is any ones geuss and wil take

a 2nd try in the a.m . this jangler and trade ring that I found a while ago came from the same spot

Wow!! More nice finds!!

I would say hair tube on the first pic too. I've never found one of those yet, but I'm dealling with a completely different tribe of natives out here than you are. It's amazing that they all made tinklers almost all the same.

I think your last pic is an arrow head made form kettle scrap.

ROB YOU MIGHT BE RITE THAT ITS A COPPER POINT AND NOT A JANGLER

 

[Rob (B.C.)]

I'm sure it is......It's rolled too tight to ever get the hide strip through to be a "jangler" (I call them "tinklers")

 

[Hardy]

yes I agree to tight for the hide and god only knows why i missed this one

 

[FortBedfordbob]

[allen]

Not to be harsh, but please stop writing in capital letters. I love looking at your finds, but I get annoyed while reading your posts because of the capital letters everywhere on the page.

It looks like your shouting, when there is no need for it.

Very nice finds.

 

[Hardy]

maybe it because I have bad eyesight and I can see what I am writing but I wont shout at you any more.

Just adjust your own text so it's larger. I tend to keep mine a little bigger... not the best eyes going.

Nice finds Hardy! I would love to get my coil over some native copper but the natives in my area were gone before the Europeans arrived...
