My New Hobby - Collecting Indian Artifacts

Since purchasing my property a little over a year ago I have taken up another hunting related hobby. I am finding a lot of Indian Artifacts on my new property. I am finding most of them in a field on top of the hill that has been plowed and disced, uncovering many stone points and blades. So far I have found well over 100 pieces. From what others have told me most of mine seem to be rough shaped blanks set aside to be finished later.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

However I did find this finished point partially exposed the other day.

 

I didn’t find this Tomahawk on my property, but it was a really neat find walking along the edge of a field shed hunting.

 

 

Finding all of these artifacts in the same general area makes me believe there once was a camp on this spot. But why were so many useful tools left behind and what happened to their owners? Just a few of the questions I wish I had answers to.

Those are just cool man!  I used to really enjoy finding those all the time.  I just wish the farmers plowed the fields.....Shoot, we're lucky if they so much as chisel plow them....

im from exline iowa and have found alot of artifacts and if you are finding them in your fields you need to walk in any creek or ditch were you find small rock or stones. if you have found all those in fields you will be amazed how many you will find in your ditches were they have been washed and the dirt has been washed away
