My daughter was digging around in some piles of sand and dirt leftover from the construction of our storage building and found these:

Welcome to TNet!

Congrats to your daughter. The one on the left looks like a Langtry (4,500 - 3,000 years old). Overstreet says that they're primarily south-central TX and adjoining Mexico. I could be wrong though. I'm just looking at Overstreet. The other one was perhaps a knife. Maybe someone from your area will chime in.

Kindest regards,

Build yourself a screen and see what else that pile has to offer. It's Texas the possibilities are endless! I'm sure my wife pray's regularly that I never find a point in our yard. It might end up looking like the movie holes! This is an example of one of my screens they are very simple to make...20200406_211924.jpg
