  • May find of the month entry!

    A big thanks to FlintEastwood for reminding me that it was June, it totally slipped my mind what day and month it was. (Very, very busy, found part time employment via friend who has too much to do on his place).

    Anyway, it's time again for a new contest! Enter your May finds, and include at least two good photos of the find as well as the link to your original post. Entry ends June 10th.

    I think i gotta enter this mano I found on 5/10. This one is orange granite and its ground as smooth as a counter top!

    Yesterday's dig in Llano, TX. The plate is a metate dug out on both sides. Pretty sure the mano goes with the plate. But talk about polished like GLASS, and the color is stunning IMO.20200510_183514.jpg

      I’ll throw my pipe in the ring for this month.
      Took a walk out to my hunting grounds this afternoon. Found a broke and what may be a small knife. The next find literally dropped me to me knees. I saw what I thought was a piece of plastic and gave it a flip and it looked strange so I picked it up. I looked at it for about ten seconds and dropped to my knees. A PIPE !!!! I

        Your right about the material I've seen it in black and white but here in Georgia in my area its green and white. Nice color of a celt.

        What I mean to say is, have you posted this point before on this site? If so, one of us will copy the link for you. If you have not, then I am sorry to report that the point cannot be entered due to contest rules. I have been off and on recently due to work and such, so I haven't been around to see everybodys posts lately.
