Hello,
I found a few things the other day and would like to know if anyone might know what they are.
In the first picture is what I thought might be a small arrowhead. I have never found one so I am not sure. I was digging up a nail and saw this in the dirt and it looked out of place.

I the 2nd picture I think one of the items is a piece to a razor and there's a lid to a canning jar that says BALL on it but I think they still make those don't they ??? and I don't know what the other 2 things are.

The 3rd picture is a close up of one of the items in the 2nd pic. It's about the size of a nickle. I thought it was a button but it doesn't have a back to it like a button would.

The 4th picture I don't have a clue. It's about the diameter of a saucer plate and the 5th picture has a arm that has a wheel with little dime size holes around it and the wheel is about 10 inches in diameter. I'm going to try and clean these 2 items up and will post updated pictures as soon as I do.

Any ideas on any of these things?

Thank you all,
Ed

I live in an area with lots of flint or chert the Indains used this to make there arrow heads, spear heads, and all purpose hand axes mostly used for processing wild game. I have found arrow heads and spear heads. I know the sites of many workshops were they made these tools, and what you have is not an arrow head but it is an artifact its a chip off of the piece they were working on. If you look for arrow heads you will find more chips than arrow heads.

Thank you for your comments guys.

That last picture does resemble a pizza cutter Diggerbarns ;D
but the wheel is about the size of a small pizza itself.

I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. :)
