Found these stone objects. Human influence evident. I identify a hide scraper, something knapped, middle/bottom of arrowhead, but the pink one baffles me. I figure it's a broken off piece of some tool design…

Just because they have been worked, doesn't mean they were worked to completion and used. Just imagine how many failed pieces outnumber the competed ones. I don't see any full pieces there.

I have found hundreds of worked pieces over the years. And only found two full arrowheads.
 
Lots of times in my experience you find a lot of worked pieces in the same spot. You can also find some that were almost completely done and then broke.
 
i tried to make arrow heads from flint in my youth and my hands looked like i had a fight with 20 large cats all at once. i still have scars from it.
