More Points And Tools

[Nicodemus]

Reframed a few from my collection. Two original gunflints, One English and one French, and a Waller knife too.

Second picture has only two broken, the Paleo base and point. Everything else is whole.

I always figured it was a Bolen drill but I really hope it is a Dalton drill. Early County find, in a hog pen.

I was thinking Bolen, but hard to ID them sometimes.

Another question, top frame, bottom right, by the Boggy Branch. Is that a Clovis or a Withlacooche ( I had to look that up)?

Great frames!

It`s a Suwannee. The one right above it is a Hardaway.

In the last picture, the gray stem looking thing between the Kirk Stemmed and prismatic knife blade. A late friend of mine who was a serious diver for artifacts found a broken section of a foreshaft in the Flint River in a stretch noted for megafauna and Paleo points. It was cut on an angle and crosshatch scored to help hold the adhesive, along with the sinew, to keep the point in place. It was made from ivory (probably Colombian mammoth) and this is a cast of the original that he gave me. It is a most unique artifact reproduction.

It is. @Resica sent them to me last year. Pretty birds to me.

Second pic, top right - I have its twin. Same color and size, and always wondered what it was, if it was shaped into a point it woulda been huge.

Very cool stuff, Nic. The Boggy, Suwanee, and Hardaway, Guilford axe (and the rest of them,) are awesome. Is that Hillsboro white material, or patina?

It`s patina. Only point I ever found in Florida. It`s as thin as two quarters and very well made.

Really nice pieces and variety - I need to get to domes shows and educate myself , I want to be able to identify my finds

 

[ghadarits]

Great way to display some cool finds!
I like that you and others can tell who made them.

 

[GeorgiaGlockMan]

Those are beautiful.

Makes me walk looking at the ground all the dang time.
