Prehistoric flintknapping tool kit recovered from Lower Pecos River area, with closeup of flakers and possible pressure flaking stone. Enjoy.

Man, that tool kit is so cool.
And nice point John, I was starting to think that Bybee flint only came in pure white. ;)
AncientTech:
Artifact interpreted to be a "flintknapping punch" from the Sand Dune cave site. Note the embedded chert fragment, and wear. Enjoy.
caveman2533:
I think first picture is pretty cool. I like the turtle shell, must have been a little bugger and the rodent jaws. Wonder what they were doing with them. The possible hammerstone is interesting. I wish the picture had a scale in it.
AncientTech:
Here is part of a flintknapping tool kit collected in 1916 from a half Native American obsidian worker, who was born during the Civil War era. His father was white, and his mother Native American. These particular tools were used prior to pressure flaking, and subsequent to hammerstone flaking. Also, one can see the native tool user holding one of his "finished points". Enjoy.
