If it works, don't fix it.

RE: Comments On This B-Head?
Anybody hunt arrowheads?? I've never found one but have read a bunch on them. Apparently there are two time periods where they come from, one is like 10,000 years ago, the other somewhere near 40,000 years ago. Did ya'll know that flint is sharper [or can be] than any steel known to mankind?? The reason is flint when freshly "knapped" goes down at the edge to ONE MOLECULE thick!! Just imagine the native Americans deciding which b-head was best. Each weighed more or less than the other, no two arrows were half as consistant than they are today, yet nobody ever met a hungry Indian!! Just imagine if they would have had Slick Tricks, lol, we'd all be talkin Apache today!!

Dan, I have someprehistoric bird points from FL and some big game points from AZ. I also have prehistoricGreat White Sharks teeth from the phosphate mine pitshere in FL.. I had some Mastodon Tusk Tips and bones, but I donated them to the South FL museum. My friend Mike Garcia has the Skull and Upper Jawwith the two fangs of the Saber Tooth Tiger that he found at Lithia Springs,FLon displayat the Smithsonian Museum. He has over 50,000 bones donated at the Museum in Bradenton ,FL..Another friend found a Marine Uniform Insignia of 1790 on Fernandina Beach, Fl..I have found many Spanish Coins on the Beaches in Key West.
I use to belong to the Florida West Coast Archaeological Society. I researched my 40 acres and found out that it was owned bythe Orange Belt Railroad in 1850 and was used by Confederate Troops.Over the years of plowing and disking, we have found many small spikes, tie plates and section of Oval Track. Railroad Buffs will pay $25perfoot to make Book Ends.
