  • Ditch finds

    I dug a trench for some electrical conduit that runs from the back of the house out 32 yards to a shed we want to electrify. I found these in the dirt. I havent pushed it back in yet so there is the possibility of more. Couple broke obsidian points. One has a classic impact fracture. The white one I think is heavily patinated KRF. Also found a tiny scraper made from my favorite dendritic montana agate. Tried to get a couple pics that show the steep bevel of the scraping edge.
