Question for the arrowhead hunters

[elkaholic9292]

So my parents enjoy hunting arrowheads in their retirement in east Texas Toledo Bend area, and have found hundreds of the traditional heads and bird points, but these things have them a little perplexed. These are only found in one small area, but there are literally hundreds of them. As you can see they have a uniform shape. Any ideas? My first thought was some kind of teeth, but dad says he thinks they’re rock. I can say there have been at least 100 true heads found within a 50 yard radius of these.

Looks like gator gar scales. I think the indians did use them but you can also find them from a recent carcass.

Winner winner chicken dinner. Indians used the hide of Garfish as armor.

I never would have thought scales.
