Schöningen Spear Replication Project - all stone tools
jamie:
dane next time we get together i'll show you some tricks. great work so far.
Dane:
Thanks, Jamie.
This Friday or Sat., I'll be harvesting some softwood spear shafts, almost certainly spruce grows on our property, but at the least, pine. The SG of spruce and pine is pretty close depending on species.
More details soon, but I'm planning a primitive event for early October, and maybe you can come to that.
Plans (I will determine for certain what we will offer soon) include an ISAC atlatl toss, primitive archery for adults and kids, bullroarers, rabbit sticks / boomerangs, cave art, Mesolithic river stone pendant making, monumental stone circles in miniature (microlith circles, think of a big sand table like those desktop Zen gardens, I think this will be a fun thing for folks to play with), and skin and frame boat making. Perhaps fire making, and other skills, depending on different factors.
We can use a good knapper, so if this event works for you, you would be very welcome to come play. Any tricks would be welcome any time, too.
