Stone has typed the first row as belonging to the Woodland Period. The
remaining pieces are, of course, only parts of a puzzle. I prefer coming
upon intact artifacts but they are few and far between. These partial artifacts
aren’t exactly namable, however, using my imagination I can see Heavy Duty,
Kirk, possibly the top of a once beautiful Dovetail. One knife top has
a left-hand bevel on one side and a right-hand bevel on the other and has
oblique transverse flaking…..intriguing. Unless Mr. Pauling would find
the other missing parts I guess we all have to just keep guessing but some
of these have absolutely wonderful workmanship. I know that I myself will
always wonder what these artifacts would have looked like just after they
were made……..and when.
