Hillbilly:
Nice stuff, everybody. Pat's saving that mummified rat for hard times, you'd probably have to boil it a good while to get it tenderized, though  :). Shannon, I'd say you're right about that being a Cumberland preform. It looks like it's already been pressure flaked to set up the median ridge. Looks like a rollout fracture during fluting when the flute flake dives through the piece, I've produced several "takedown" fluted points myself. :) What does the other side look like?  Oh, and I'll trade you a ton of quartzite for a hundred pounds of that slick gray flint.  ;D

uwe:
@ Pat B: the claypot is nice. Where did you get it? Which time and culture? Was it complete in 1 piece?
Regards Uwe

Pat B:
Uwe, The clay pot came to me complete and unbroken from my aunt. She got it 75 years ago from an old boyfriend. It came from the Neches River in Texas( ???).  The period and culture are unknown to me.
   As far as the rat and teeth goes, I have a box full of "interesting" stuff like that. I love to collect all sorts of stuff and you never know when you might just need a mummified rat or old set of false teeth. ;D       Pat

cowboy:
Nice stuff ya'll ;D. Yeah, I was jokin about that Shannon :). I heard somewhere that on average, people who walk/dig for artifacts find one every eighteen hours. Those collection's ya'll have there equate to a lot of ground poundin...
