  • Shaft abrader? πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

    Only had a hour to kill after work today so I went to one of my dig sites and found this. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    That's what is left of a banner stone.

              I’d agree with it being a bannerstone. Really nice score.

                        1/2 of a panel type bannerstone! The material is interesting. It doesn't look like soapstone. It looks like Clinton Co.,Pa. pipestone. I've handled several bannerstones of this type from Warren Co., and Pa. pipestone seems to be the lithic of choice!!
