At your service, Madam.
The only point I could find in the drawer is this one-
one of the kids must have "borrowed" the other. Anyway...

So, I looked at my notes and while I was at my student job in the library
today, I took out a great book on Indian Archaeology. So here is what
Think. and I am no expert by a long shot!!!
It looks like the pipe is a Cherokee or Creek artifact. They made similar
pipes both using stone, although Creeks used pottery clay as well, and I
suspect earlier Indians did too. The "point" looks to be a drill or knife,
which were used for cutting, shaving of animal furs, and such, more than
for hunting. Most likely from mid-to late Woodland period. BUT, I am no
expert, and as they say, a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing! Have
you considered taking them to the University to be examined?

Snakefiddler- bordering on the dangerous..... :-)

I'd like to see your points. I might could tell what period they came
from,
as each period had distinctive points ranging from Clovis to Kirkland
and
others. The pipe may very well be from another state,as there is
evidence
that the Mississippian and Woodland period Indians traveled between
states,
trading supplies. The points of course were utilitarian, therefore more
abundant, while the pipes were used ceremoniously and also served as
non-utilitarian artwork. Any design on the pipe would give clues as to
when
it was made.
Really cool stuff to have! I'm envious!

Snakefiddler-always with my nose to the ground......

well, forty, like i said, i "weren't" there three hundred years ago, and
it may very well be that the ohio looked as brown as the ****ing yadkin
below salisbury, back then; in short, i could easily have formed an
ill-founded opinion, based upon what i saw, and what i projected as a past
condition. i just know this: it was plenty clear in september two years
ago; and if you, or greg, think i'm misrepresenting that fact, or if the
implication is that lawyers, generally, are to be questioned more closely
with regard to the integrity of their statements about the clarity of water,
or any other damned thing, than any other class of folks, then we need to
discuss the situation.

I don't doubt for one moment that the Ohio River was running precisely
as you described it. I do take exception to you, or anyone else for that
matter, considering a clear running Ohio River a return to a natural state.
It's not, it is in fact an abomination.

or if the
implication is that lawyers, generally, are to be questioned more closely
with regard to the integrity of their statements about the clarity of water,
or any other damned thing, than any other class of folks, then we need to

Lawyers, generally, should be hung, drawn, quartered, shot, tortured,
maimed, ground into fish meal and distributed to insane dwarves who do
unspeakably grotesque sex acts with KY Jelly and ground fish meal.

Generally. ;-)

Actually, it's almost 21:01 EST, so I vote we make TWO toasts:
1) Good grades (as previously promised)
2) Good lawyers (I'm pleased to say I know of several)
