The farmer came by with his tractor and box scraper to smooth up the roads into the field,
stirred up a bunch of rocks so I looked 'em over. The colored rocks are usually the ones the NAs
used cause they're easy to see. Gleened a couple nice hammer stones and this handsize matate
pink quartz conglomerate.

Here is a nice 1.75 inch long red triangular point made of red jasper, from central Indiana.
when I was living in Jefferson County Missouri, my relic hunting buddy found two larger points made of an amazing greenish jasper, This is the only jasper point that I had found.

Newnan is a personal find, I don't know the type on the Beaver Lake looking point. It belonged to my brother and I have no history other than it's from Illinois.

Preform or maybe a digging tool recovered in a creek coming out of a rock shelter.

The E-Notch Thebes [in a red felt background for the thread] was obtained in 2014 from Richard Shively, a friend of mine from Dayton Ohio.

Richard passed away last year, and I have missed talking to him.

Made of Upper Mercer Chert, from the Ken Flowers collection Hardin Co Ohio.
