Tools from home

The first is a favorite. There are two more pieces that I found with this one. They also have shell on the top side. The shell is glittering tiny crystals.
The rest don't need a script. Hope you like them as much as I do

Nice collection of tools Lilly! Is the last pic a crescent scraper? I've got a couple dozen from Webb Co. and that shape is very charicteristic. The fossil perforator is very cool!

Thanks Tdog, The last one is a delicate scraper. It is much prettier than this photo.

Midland the scraper is kinda strange. There are a couple similar. But they don't fit for here. The flint looks heat treated. Has that faint pink tint to it.

The fossil perforator, as I said is a favorite. Over and over I've found fossil flint that early people liked so much that they tried to use the piece as a tool.
Even small squared up stones with fossils in them and one or two sides as smooth as glass. Like maybe they were polishing stones or?

The fossil flint often has the crystal inclusions. I wish the glitter showed in the photos. Thanks guys
