Flintdiver,I'll keep this short since it's off topic.No, I'm not Alan Hyde from St. Leo. Looks like your findin' some fine stuff there.Do you ever find large meg teeth when your divin'?The case of hills/newnans are actually ones that a friend and myself flint knapped.They are on my wall and were handy to snap a pic of to put on my response to your post.I keep my ancient points locked in storage until I need them.Gotta love artifact hunting,and for me ,getting bitten by the arrowhead bug was as powerful as the field herpin' drive!Have you ever tried knapping,That's addicting also!A good thing about keepin' points is,no scoopin' poop!Ya know,Art never was an artifact collector like we are.But he was genuinely enthuisiastic about them and had a great general knowledge about all things from the field.He and I met up at Roberts,and I showed him a point that I had found that morning.His eyes lit up and he said right away that it was made of agatized coral and was an archaic stemmed point.I said very good call,Art!He said,I'm right aren't I ?So he did know what he was looking at,and was a wheeler dealer type and had points pass thru his hands.Whenever we saw each other he would talk about fossils and ask what I'd found recently.I was truly sad to hear of his passing,bless his soul.To keep the peace with those who read this expecting something about Kings,here is an old school Brooksi.Thanks Alan
