      What are the interesting looking things in the shelf below the arrowheads?

        @Bigdog You've got an incredible collection there. Do you know what indigenous tribes they come from? My grandfather had a nice collection from rural mid-Missouri. We have a farm there that our family has owned since 1903. It was inhabited by Kickapoo and Osage historically. I have never found anything but I’m always looking when I’m there.

        @Giles thats a cool find. It wound not feel good to take one of those in the torso…or anywhere for that matter

          This map is an amazing resource for looking up indigenous lands

            @Giles ![alt text](image.jpg image url)image.jpg these look very similar. I think the shot from a canister round for a cannon.

              @SKT. I do not know which indigenous people made these, some of these artifacts are thousands of years older then others.

                  @Giles The shelf below the arrowheads are hammer stones, a pendent, fire starters, cannon balls and unknown objects.

                          Not sure whether toilet paper counts as a stone age tool when it is used to patch up a tire loosing air, but it is primitive enough that it may just qualify.

                          IMG_0416.jpeg

                          Once you get about a half roll of TP inside the deflated tractor tire, inflate it to working pressure and start moving the tractor, the toilet paper finds it way to the leakage point and seals it. Good enough to get back to the ranch and do a proper tire puncture repair.

                          The journey is the objective.
