That's damn fine work, Mike,
like all your projects we've
seen ! Just out of curiosity, did
you research that arrowhead you found ? It definitely looked like obsidian, so I'm guessing it was made much further west and acquired in trade !
I had an anthropology teacher that said 80% of the obsidian points found in North America came from obsidian formed in Yellowstone. There is also turquoise jewelry found on the East Coast from turquoise mined in Arizona, so his premise was that despite the constant tribal warfare the trading that occurred was sea to sea. Fascinating history.
