Ancient Hunters

[Harold Pickens]

Not a double, but can you imagine hunting with this? This spear point was found on our farm in the early 1950's before I was born(1954), when they were plowing the fields. I am taking it to be evaluated by an archeologist at the mound builders museum in Moundsville, Wv.
Hmm, wonder what the weight of the spear was?

[J. A. EARLY]

The Damascus Steel of spear points. The maker's work was highly sought after in his day.

[C.O.B.]

That is a nice piece of craftsmanship.

[charlie cleveland]

that was a mighty nice find...and the maker of this point was very talented..would not be surprized if this belonged to a chief and possible it was used in cermonial rituals... when you get it looked over by the experts please let us know what they say... charlie

very nice that one does have nice "grain" and suvived in great shape


- we used to find arrow heads alot as kids (lived in an area where Gen Sullivan destroyed a Seneca village)- we gave them away because we found them alot and then - suddenly - the roads got paved and the farm fields turned to houses - no more to be found

all I have is a stone knife blade (about the size of your spear point- I found in one of my hunting spots about 10 years ago,

i figure the last time it had been held was when some Seneca boy asked to borrow his dad's knife and the last words said over it was "here, but don't lose it"

amazing!

[charlie cleveland]

good storey on that knife... i too have found several arrow heads over the years i too have given them away except for what i call a indian axe..looks just like a single bit axe...but not as near as nice as this spear point.... charlie

That's a nice point. being that size it must be for a lance.

[Bill Zachow]

It must be a Parker spearpoint, because I can see the beautiful case colors.....i have a similar point, but I had to buy mine. I did find a corn grinding pestle on our farm here in upstate NY. Plowed it up like your point was found.

[paul stafford jr]

it looks like a spear point that would be called clovis in design. have it look at by a archeologist, it may be thousands of years old and very special.
