Well, maybe not as cool as bones found by Larson or Joshua, but I like it. Found it about 20 years ago in a site near the Texas coast - on 2 different days. It's made from a deer "leg" bone. I've heard these described as "awls", or "pins", or "stilettos". It would be cool to look through the "time machine window" and see.

some of these could be used as skewers for the 'Sundance'

I have a friend who is a Crow Indian
he has done the sundance twice
he has the scars on his back and on his chest from the skewers
he showed me some skewers about 8 years ago
they looked like the ones that Tylocidaris has posted

I just love the Limace and large end scraper that I found this year here in Central Texas on Private land near Lake Travis. They are very well manufactured, and OLD!!! The material to me is just beautiful. Both are made out of the same material, and found close in proximity. Love all the pieces you all are displaying.
