description:
Bone implements from the Moore Site. The larger is a bone awl with a length of 4 3/4 inches and is probably almost complete. It tapers to a fine point which has a slight inset, with one flattened side, which extends half an inch from the tip. The smaller piece is slightly thinner and does not have any inset at the point. The implements are made from the long bones of deer. One has been worked to a sharp point at one end where the surface of the bone has been removed. Another has a blunt end which has been smoothed and polished. The remaining specimen, which is fragmentary, is smoothed and striated at both ends, and is marked by alternating rows of incised lines which run almost the entire length of the specimen on one side and approximately 1/2 of the length on the other.
