Indian Artifact Experts Needed

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

Cromagnons then?

Cromagnons then?

No no no haha I mean I think it's just a rock with some natural flat surfaces on it, fracture lines or whatever they'd be called, a crystalline structure sort of like basalt (not saying this is basalt, it looks like granite or even more like straight feldspar to me. Granite is a mix of feldspars and quartzes and some other things I believe. But feldspar on its own does stuff like this.

This opposing side beveled piece is cool and first I've seen this on an artifact:

What brings you to this conclusion?

A lifetime of artifact hunting...

Looks like something a real man would use to give himself a straight shave!

Small game point. This is less than 2" long. Edges are still quite sharp.

The only intact one I found with the others shown in photo:

there is a split in a river near here that formed a island the indians must have camped on for hundreds of years(maybe many different tribes) after the spring floods go down arrow heads and worked pieces are still found, when i was a kid there was a old man who had hundreds of arrow heads he collected for over 50 years in frames arranged in different desings.

My uncle has a small collection of items that he, my father, their father and grandfather found over the years working the land here in Saskatchewan, in a region that truly hasn't been settled for that long (compared to a lot of the US anyway). The usual scrapers and arrowheads which are very interesting BUT when I was a kid I was always especially fascinated by the stone hammer/club head he had. No mistaking what it was, a smooth rock about double my fist size with a perfect band engraved into it around the circumference. A BONKING STICK!!!!

I'm hesitant to post another artifact. I've only hunted on one trip for two days. My hunting partner got pretty mad at my beginner's luck. Lol
