digger found this yesterday morning, since he does not have a computer he asked me to post this and is hoping for some input
him and me have found about 15-20 of these over the last 25 years which is maybe one per year between the both of us
now they are almost always broke in half
we maybe have four out of 22-25 of these same pieces that are not broke in half
most are made from white petrified wood, agate and maybe a few from KRF
ALL are highly ground or polished......and i mean ALL OF THEM
with the unique shape and high polish (without any exceptions) on any leads me to believe that these were manufactured with an awful lot of time spent
i can either find more images in my photo library or get the frames that the rest of mine are stored in, this should show that these are not a one time making,
these were made to the same silhouette over and over, but larger or smaller......all being between 1.5-3.5 inches long
once again they are so highly polished(or ground) that it leads me to believe they might not be projectile points, but maybe ornamental or ceremonial
we also found a few similarly highly ground bigger pieces made from white petrified wood,these seem to be shaped like a very long slim birds head...i will go look through some of my stuff and try to locate them and photograph these similar looking items
.....i thank anyone in advance for any input on this type of utensil
i will post these images and go look for some similar ones
