great mano is that the size of a grapefruit? i usualy bring a pole too

Re: Feb. 1, 2011

That "granite" might be a true treasure, a 'Mano'... hand grinder for the cooking staff.
Hard to tell from a pic. True Manos will show a definite polished surface and if well used, sort of a 'flat ridge' between polished and natural surface..

All good finds...and there's even MORE out that way

Re: Feb. 1, 2011

The two pcs with the dime were found 70ft from the water in a little clump of trees,...with a huge oak, 6inches deep,...ive had that granite {mano} for about 6 yrs in a shoe box cant remember where i found it.

P, could that possibly be a SAVANNAH RIVER relative ?

Re: Feb. 1, 2011

H. that is a definate possibility, its as good or bettern my guess. were not in east texas tho. who knows i swear i've found caddoan blade pieces in coke county on the colorado river. it had to be (the colorado river) like an interstate for the ancients.

Re: Feb. 1, 2011
