Well, since Roland is opening up a new spot I figured I would post some of the goodies that have come off his various spots. The wife and I are pretty amateur about this but boy do we love playing in the dirt.
These are all from fantastic Site 18. Whenever we were there, people would say something like “naaa, that sites tapped out” and my wife would pull out another point or little blade. Maybe it was tapped out for them but for us it was the spot that kept on giving!
Various tools from the site
Not really sure what this bad boy is, if its even a relic or not, but since we found it on the site we are going with relic…
Cool Masher/Grinder
Scrapers, flint nodes and choppers
Some of the goodies that we found
I forget what this tool is called…it was used for wood working I think..
Sweet little needle point that we pulled out of the sand a few nice blades….more than enough to keep us satisfied
Sweet chooper in the middle and above it a rootbeer blade of some sort…insanely sharp
These came off the famous church site on the pay dig with Nacho… when the wife pulled out that montell it was a "holy s#$#!" moment!
nice post...i really love the tools, nodes and scrapers... man i have a ton of these on my ranch~.... ..and you know.. just like you, anything that's on the site... that's weird or out of place, i pick up too!... like you have some long smooth tools in your first pic... and just like you .. i pick them up... i have a several like that as well.....
No true Indian camp is ever completely "dugout" , where people congregate for thousands of years, new artifacts will always be found ...No wonder the wife said " s#$#!"
thats a mighty fine Montell.
You do know that that point above the birdpoint is really OLD.
Hey DFW guy! I was there when your wife found that Montell at Nachos! We were leaving and that made us regret doing so. I was on of the 4 guys that slept on the screens the night before. You also took us to #18 and was showing us how to hand dig in the middle of the night! How has your hunting been going?

Hand dig in the middle of the night? Na..that sounds sneaky and I wouldn't dare do something like that
I remember ya, things been good - you can see from the pics we have been able to hold our own lately. Was back out at Rolands this weekend will post our finds. 18 is all cleaned up...broke my heart since I still think there is a heck of a lot of camp left to dig there.
