Not sure if this is prehistoric, but it was found near a Maritime Archaic burial ground.

bearswede- thanks for your comment. I've always wondered if it was just some person 'doodling' or if it actually meant something.

tombstone- thanks for the pic.

I noticed we have several posts on this thread from others that seem to know a lot about indian artifects. I have never really hunted for them but did pick up this point on Nantucket Island when I was station there in the CG. Actually found it near Quidnet Village(on Nantucket Island) on the shore of Sesachacha Pond. From what I have heard indians lived on Nantucket as long as 3000 years ago. Seams like they would be quite adventurous to land out on the island out of sight of all land but they made it I guess. Someone also found a 6 in. long quartz ceremonial knife there too about the same time. Anyone know how old this point might be or which indians migh have made it. I had put it in a safe place at home and just found it again after 6-7 years, at least I labled it as to date, and location that I found it, just couldn't remember where I stashed it.
Thanks for any info.

Cliff

Man, You guys find some great artifacts!!!!!!!!!

I am seriously going to try to look harder... take more time searching for some of these things... Southern Maine and Rollinsford, NH had quite an indian population many many years ago. Some of their footpaths have become roads and I have read that they spent most of the summer months just around the corner from my house.

A friend of mine found the head of a war-club a year or two ago right up here in South Berwick while diggin for bottles!!! It was quite an impressive find. So, there must be some underwater, Right???

Oh well, I'll keep lookin... Thanks for the photos Guys... Cliff, I'll probably see you at the show, right?

Hi Wayne,

I will be at the show in April, supposed to split a table with Paul my digging buddy. From what I have heard lots of indians spent the winters along the coast,usually near coves with good SW exposure. Harvested lots of oysters,clams and fish and ducks. Lots of artifacts are found near shell heaps. Seems like you might find stone net weights or bird points under water in some areas. Good luck.

Cliff

It is surmised that many paleoindian sites might be found submerged along the coast. Sea levels would have been lower because a lot of ocean water would have been locked up in glacial ice...
