I was referred here from Reddit to see if anyone could give me any insight into these items. There seems to be a lot of interest in the bottom groove of the axe head and despite recognizing it's oddity, I never sought out information on the axe itself regarding it's use, era, tribe, and so on.
I found the axe in 2006 in a field in far Western Franklin County Ohio. The gorget piece was found in 2014 several feet away from the axe but on the opposite side of a small creek. Several other item we're found in close proximity and many, many others throughout the extent of the property. Most others were worked pieces of flint and a lot of points or various sizes and condition.
The creek these two were found along runs west into a much larger creek (Big Darby Creek) and is relatively close, roughly 400-600 yards. If any additional information is needed please let me know!
