Nice!
I like that gold colored flint you have up there. Seems to be a lot of it in that area.

Found this nice little scraper sticking out of the bank of the Colorado River at the Ranch after all the heavy rain. Or I guess it could be a small knife??? It has a really fine edge that is very sharp!

My brother found this sharpened off welk shell in a firebreak where he often finds arrowheads and flint flakes. His farm is probably 50 miles from the coast. Anybody have an idea what this kind of artifact might be or what it would have been used for? I've never seen anything like this so far from the coast.

Likely used as a punch/awl to make holes in wood/leather would be my best guess. Awl's found here in the midwest are made from chert/flint/ bone. Bone ones are only found in dry caves. Some strange stone/ bone/ shell tools show up. Have a hard stone tool that likely used for a thimble/ hole punch receiver. Friend found it and gave it to me, never seen another like it. GW

I kind of figured it was something like that. It didn't look like it had any provisions for mounting it on anything and the back end was almost flat across. Unusual find for around here. I have seen a large welk shell with a hole in the side for mounting on a stick for use as a hoe, but it was found on St Simmons Island where you might expect the Native Americans to be using shells as tools.

Been stumbling through the rows, have many more already uploaded and batched for posting but I don't want to hog the bandwidth.
Still have the typical crop of pill heads and disability fakers and ptsd'rs beating me out to my spots and they don't have permission. Can't run em off if I'm at work.
