Thumbs up My illinois indian artifacts

Hello all,
I found a place were there used to be a village. I have found almost 1000 pieces over five different days of hunting, about 2 hour per day. I have founf many pieces of flint such as: cores, hand axes, turtleback scrapers, thumbnail scrapers, knifes, blanks, arrowheads, drills, and many other tools that I can not ID. I have also found non flint tools such as: a grinding stone, pestals, and what looks like a bowl, pottery, unknown teeth, and others that I need help IDing. Here is a link: New Page 1

Enjoy and Happy Hunting,
Joe

Unfortunatly I have found only 1 full intact arrowhead.
The other day I was walking back and Isaw a couple walking topwards the area where I found these. The man told me that he had been collecting arrowheads and arrowheads only for many years. Which would explain why I have found many pieces, but only one full intact arrowhead. The arrowhead was found within 6" from the small tooth, it looks like it may be an Elk tooth used to fine tune small details on arrowheads or other tools.

Happy Hunting,
Joe Kerchner
