These are some of the artifacts made by the flintknappers at the Lums Pond site. The workers gathered pieces of jasper from quarries at Iron Hill, a little over four miles north of Lums Pond -- about two hours away on foot. At the quarry, they removed large flakes from the jasper outcrop and roughly shaped them into flat ovals, about the size of your hand. The flintknappers brought these blanks to Lums Pond where they fashioned them into spear points, knives and other tools. Some tools were broken as they were being made and were discarded at the site. From these fragments, we know that the flintknappers were making tools typical of the middle part of the Woodland I time period, around 3,000 years ago.
