Despite an on and off rain this past Saturday, I was able to locate and hunt a late 1700's Native American home site. We located it in a field and the only indication of it on the surface were very small pieces of pottery and a couple shards of black glass. The site contained a lot of cut pieces of brass and some square nails. In the mix, I was able to recover a few copper rolled arrowheads, a flat button, a small buckle and a few musket balls. The two other items pictured I believe to be gun furniture off the muskets they had.

There was a lot of a scrap pieces of brass amongst the points. More scrap than points by far.
 

I had to travel from Ky. to the UP of mich. to get me some rolled copper points, you did good.

I have some other ones that I found at another site posted on the Native American forum. By now, the post is likely on the 2nd or 3rd page.
 

Ur killing those arrow heads. Very nice indeed. Save some for seed.
