Indian Artifact Experts Needed

[Brathany]

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…

Left to right I'd say:
Broken knife blade
Scraper
Clueless
Flake

But I'm as far from a rock expert as you could be.

Best I can tell they all have been worked. However, they don't seem to be anything of significance.

 

[lancetkenyon]

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.

So, anybody know what the pink rock was or was supposed to be? Like a picture of a competed tool or something the Comanche would have used?

It's not a tool..... nor is it worked.

the "pink" seems to be part of a crystal

It's granite

What brings you to this conclusion?

 

[Calvin45]

Yeah I'm not convinced that humans had anything to do with the shape of the pink one.

It's granite

granite can have large crystals due to very slow cooling

Any Trekkie knows that is broken piece of dilithium used to balance anti-matter reactions in any Galaxy Class Starship.....
