Today the temperature turned cold - 26 degrees is the high for the day with light flurries. Then the weather is forecasted to get worse with a winter storm coming into the region from Canada.

Its these sorts of days we get the fireplace stove going well, relax and enjoy our time together. We get into the hot tub outside, have a few beers in the evening.
My wife works on her quilting and I my artifacts. I had some relics in the last Collectors of Historic and Prehistoric Artifacts book, and plan to have some in the upcoming The Who's Who in Indian Relics - if plans work out.

I thought I would post how I take photos. I don't use the lights for all photos.

The lights I am using are EMART 60 LED Continuous Portable Photography Lighting Kit for Table Top Photo. bought on Amazon.
They are run under the table to the electric strip laying on the chair, with the cables through the chair for safety. Don't want to trip and have a relic incident.

I get my lights out and setup on the table. This is with the lights turned off.

The photo.
These relics are from Grayson County Kentucky.

This is the light storage/tote bag. I got this from my mother a number of years ago. Some medical device, or oxygen mask came in this bag. Its the perfect size to store the lights of take them somewhere.

Did you find this point? I’m trying to figure out what point type it’s supposed to be. The base looks early archaic. The recurved needle tip doesn’t go with the base at all. The only point I can think of with a recurved needle tip is the Neuberger. The base is way wrong for that.🤔 Large size, perfect edge outline with zero damage, unknown type… Red flags everywhere!!

This is a classic Neuberger.

Red Flags? I don't think so.
Not a Neuberger.
This point is a buzzard roost, Middle Archaic period. One of the finest.
This point was found by Ben Duvall, a friend of mine. His son's family built our cabin in Kentucky. I have hunted relics with him in the past, he is elderly now.


From OVERSTREET 4th edition, check out the Benton's also noting the base.
