      I think it is a much resharpened Saint Marys Hall. Cool and very old find.

        Don't see that one listed in my book GarGuy. Do you have another source that identifies Texas artifacts? I'd love to have more resources to ID some of the points I find.

ID:	24535711I know nothing about old heads. But we found these around La Pryor Tx. On the surface, abound 1/4 mile apart of each other. Can any one tell me how old ? What Indians tribe ? Any thing about them. Thanks in advance !

              This one was found in Tom Green county on an old rocky hill. Any ideas?

                I’ve got a good one to share. I inherited the below embedded arrowhead. My grandparents were somewhat well off and had a habit of buying items that were sold to them as “museum quality pieces.” Either way this is a cool item but I am skeptical. Anyone have any ideas?

                For reference, the vertebra next to the one in question is from a 9 point buck that dressed at 125 lbs. so this is from maybe an elk-sized animal? I’m not really sure.

                  eBay was full of them several years back. I haven’t seen them recently but I haven’t really been looking.

                    Good to know. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Sure enough there is one labeled as a deer vertebrae for a whopping $10.

                      Beware of "reproductions". This is one of the most popular kind.

                          This FIL’s collection he recently gave me, a few complete points but most are brokes, some pieces of pottery with markings, some type of rock tool that had a small concave spot ground into it and one cool broke pottery pipe.
                          Most of these were found on our place in Longview, one when i was doing dirt work building my place.

                            Wow, what an awesome piece!
                            Looks like a Gahagan biface.
