Hopewell "Microblades" (5) from a Henderson County, Kentucky, site--along with some uniface "Thumbnail scrapers". The Microblades are a mix of grey Hornstnone along with two made of white Burlington Chert--the longest of the Microblades is 2&5/16", the one with the 'ridgeback' at top left. The bottom row has a pair of quartzite 'thumbnail' scrapers"--it could well be the Hopewell either found a quartzite nodule along the nearby Ohio River--or traded for some 'exotic' material--Hopewell were really good at that, bringing-in materials where you have little idea how or where they acquired the stone (Obsidian being a prime example--twenty miles east of where these tools were found I've collected a number of obsidian flakes, totally out-of-area materials). In the center of this group is a heavily polished scraper--super high polish, but so small (7/8" long) you wonder what its use might have been. Last scraper is the large, round Uniface, 2&7/16" long by 2&3/16" wide; center thickness is 9/16", made of Indiana Harrison County Hornstone. Note the flattened edge, heavily polished so it rests against the heel of your hand--and shaped so your index finger wraps around the curve to an indention for the finger tip--WELL designed...and well USED, that scraping edge is heavily work polished. These ten, they're neat tools, they're real. Shipping is $9.00 due to weight. I welcome checks, cash, or money orders, but I do not use paypal-type services--Roy A.
