Plains Hardstone

[quito]

This is a shot of much of my Hardstone from the Dakota's. Much of these are personal finds, some I have purchased, and some were gifts. There is a little bone in there as well.

Nice representation of Plains hardstone. The maul was certainly an important tool for the nomadic and semi-nomadic Plains bison hunters and you have some real nice examples.

Love the mauls! How heavy is the biggest one you have?

The largest is on the center shelf, left side and weighs 13 1/2 pounds. I am not certain it is a maul since there is no use wear sign on either end. I think it is possible it was used to break ice, or something other than normal maul use.

I had it with me at Collinsville last year, and I wish I would have had the opportunity to show it to you then. If you were gonna make it to Mt Pleasant, I'd show it to you there.
