<p>[QUOTE="Lark, post: 9747324, member: 13605"]We hunt arrow heads and axe heads on our farm. Our creek bed is about 90% chert. The glaciers came with in 5 miles of our farm . we also find Mammoth tooths along with many fossils. When the glaciers began to melt (10,000 years ago), this area would have been lush with growth. So the NA would hunt along here. Chert was valuable so they would stay and and create tools . Some would have just been the beginnings of tools that they would take with them to trade or work later. We find chips of chert 6" deep where they would have worked over the centuries.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
