Before i share the stories, ill share the tip.
--- Save your brokes. ---
Especially if it is a site you visist frequently, or is somewhere you will prob return to in the future. ( i know most of us already keep our brokes for many reasons like the fact that its an artifact, or a couple brokes is better than empty handed. But there is also another reason that most deem impossible. Finding the other half.
However or whenever it was broke, the other half or piece may be intact and possibly found to make a whole artifact and a cool story. Although it xould have broke during use by ancient man as a tool, or an arrowhead snapping off in the animal or the natural landscape around like tree trunks, or hard rock, sand, and clay. Its still possible. It also could have been broke during thr resting period, during which in most cases it necomes inches to feet under ground during climatic changes and cataclysmic events over a long period of time, or natural erosion and sinkholes The last and second most likely cause happened in modern mans day. Whether someone digging it up, farmers plowing fields, or construction workers clearing land with heavy equipment, and so on. There are many other possible events, i just gave few examples. The point is, unless they reworked it into a different tool or artifact, its outhtere. Never hurts to look through your brokes every now and then.
Here's the first match that we made. I found the tip about 5 to 7 months after my brother found the base. Its a Drill/ Pick tool made of Chert . The pieces lined up perfect, but the color from being oiled differently and different times, don't matxh in tone and color. Still awesome find.
The second is my FAVORITE Point!!! I found the bursting with color tip about 8 to 10 months before i found the base at different part of the site. I recognized the odd break line instantly, and knew i prob had the other half at home. But never knew it was my "nuclear" color tip. This beauty xhanges color with the daylight, dusk, or overcast. Truly Amazing. Pretty large as well. Largest point of that style. Second largest of entire collection. This point was destined for me to bring it back together. Although it has a chip off the ear, and tiny micro chip at fracture line, its whole to me. And hands down my most precious.
The point--
A Citrus /Hernando Style Point made of Heat Treated Coral
Site is Archaic to Woodland in Central Florida
