Interesting stuff.

I’ve found spearheads much older, and a clay marble but I have no idea how old it is. Older spearheads are not really a big deal though, plenty of those found in the US over the years.

A snowshoe this old is a big deal, I had no idea people in that era had even thought of snowshoes.

Arrowheads and spearheads may not be a big deal to you, but I’ve never even held one. I think they are a big deal.

I once went to a place near the borders of CA, OR, and NV that had an enormous extrusion of obsidian coming out of the mountain. The vein was so big you could drive a truck all around it. I was told it was a source for arrowheads. I thought it was super cool and brought home a large chunk - maybe someday I’ll chip an arrowhead, I said to myself.

Everyone else thought it was lame. Years later I have a family, and my dad still has a large, shiny rock in his back yard.
