The rocks all look natural. The pipe could be period but looks like a reproduction. I would need to hold it in hand to be sure.

Think the teeth are cow. The pipe not a repro, for sure, actually just tossed it in. Father found it 40 odd years ago here on the farm, likely European and dropped here at some time. Thanks for all of your input! Appreciate it. Will put flint etc in new album in a day or so. Lots of scrapers etc. I have about 2 times the milky quartz/quartzite, than I have posted in my album. Thanks again.

I would think some or most of those rocks have an excellent chance of being Indian tools-- acorn pounders, scrapers, etc. They certainly have the right shape.

The picture next to the pipe is the best one can take better ones. Found underneath the edge of foundation of house built 1930 about 10 inches down. I di not go underneath the foundation very far.

I guess if you use your imagination you could make a tool or artifact out of anything you pick up. I found a pipe similar to the one in the picture up on the Cimarron River back in the sixties. It sure wasn't as detailed as the one in the picture but looked like it was made of soap stone or soft shale. Judging by your pictures I take it you may be a serious rock hound!!! LOL!
