We all just had a field day! (No pun intended !) There was a smile
on each of our faces all day long. Digging side
by side with this crew.. made it a great day! Well I just
couldn't have asked for better company.
Mark was by far the luckiest digger of the day. I was just glad
that I was there to see it all happen!
These beauty's were popping out from the left and right!! Too bad
I was digging in the middle! heheh
I got a few nice pieces too though! But the guys had the luck of
the big ones!
You should have seen this base tang just pop right out without a
nick ! WOW MARK!!! The quality of the
points that I saw with my own eyes come out of this SMALL area that
we dig.. Its just amazing quality here folks
Here is a insitu of a big old blank.. Wonderful tool or a gonna
be anyway!
Here is Mark and I showing off a few finds
I , Michelle, (hehe) found this one .. Not sure what it is, its
got the cortex on still .. But sure is
a great little arrowhead! I wouldn't have wanted to be on the catching
end of this fatty!
Hal's wonderful find of this 4 1/4 G-10 PERD was quite the site!
We started taking pictures insitu
before we even knew it was complete! And BOY was it! WONDERFUL and
tippy tip all there!
Hal is trying out a new technique to of photo's .. taping it to
clear plastic so there isn't a finger in the photo!
You see those little notches??? WOW HAL!!!! You got you one too!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everyone took pictures and here are all the views from 3 different
photographers!
Base Tang??? Did someone say Base Tang??? Wow!!! Seeing 2 people
find these
wonderful Tangs .. and they were I would say, 3 ft apart too!!
You really cannot compare the base tangs that were found because
there are totally unique and one of a kinds for sure!
Here are some of my little cleaned up cuties!
Checking out the 2 day finds from MARK! Ahh!!! Mark got ..well lets
say, 's
That was a empty case when Mark got here! With that HUGE BASE
TANG, you need another case!!!!!!
Nice to finally meet you Jim!! Thanks for coming with your finds!
This one here Hal found in 2 pieces! He didn't even know he had
this until he went home and was cleaning
the finds for the day and was washing off the broken points and
couldn't believe it! Covington!!
Here is Marks Base Tang with Hal's and a few others from Hals. You
see the quality on these artifacts !
I congratulate Mark and Hal for not breaking any of there finds
with picks! GREAT DAY!!!
These are Hal's "Best Of Show" - Best day that I bet he had ever
had anywhere
Here are the finds to end the day!
Hal and I were all done and packing up for the day.. already said
our good-byes and were loaded up
and almost in the truck.. Here comes this AHH! and WOW from Mark
.. What luck this
Hay!!!!! What cha got going on down there (by deangela)?? Are those 2 perds TOGETHER!!!!
WHAT!!!!
There were 5 in all. A wonderful find of a cache of 5 arrowheads
!
Mark couldn't believe his eyes and neither could we!
STOP!! Grab the camera's folks!!
THERE WAS ANOTHER ONE STICKING OUT OF THE WALL WHERE THEY FELL FROM
!!!!!
See this BEAUTY sticking out of the Snail level! This was a unbelievable
find!! Mark found a CACHE
of 5 arrowheads all together!! This was in the wall right there
these others fell out!
This was , I think, the best of the 5 in the cache .. What a wonderful
Perd!!
Now I know the meaning of " Straight as a arrow" .. This is as good
as it gets here folks!!
There ended up being 5 total. I didn't get the picture of the last
one. It was a broken base with these other 4 points
