Figure 49. Artifact 1 was discovered in the upper portions of Lima-Igl, ca. 50-75 meters downstream (NE) from the furnace and mold carved into Ked. The artifact is a very magnetic mixture of iron, zinc and silver, apparently poured over an ammonite fossil. |
Figure 50. Lateral view of Artifact 1, displaying signs of trimming and shaping. |
Figure 51. Artifact 2 was also discovered in the upper portions of Lima-Igl, ca 50-75 meters downstream (NE) from the furnace and mold carved into Ked. The artifact is also a highly magnetic mixture of iron, zinc and silver apparently poured over an ammonite fossil. |
Figure 52. Artifact 3: Dorsal view, proximal end to the right. A uniface heavily stained with iron, with remnants of iron still attached to the lower distal end of the piece. Artifact 3 was found in the upper portions of Lima-Igl, ca 50-75 meters downstream (NE) from the furnace and mold carved into Ked. |
Figure 53. Artifact 3: Ventral view. Again, note the heavy iron staining on the distal end. |
Figure 54. Artifact 4: Another uniface. Dorsal view, proximal end to the right. Again, note the heavy iron staining on the top portion of the dorsal surface. Artifact 4 was found in the upper portions of Lima-Igl, ca 50-75 meters downstream (NE) from the furnace and mold carved into Ked. |
Figure 55. Artifact 4: Ventral view. Note the heavy iron staining on the entire ventral surface. proximal end is to the left in this photo. |
Figure 56. Proximal view of the uniface, with the ventral surface on the left side, and the dorsal surface on the right side in this photo. Note the heavy iron staining on the entire ventral surface and the worked edges on the dorsal surface. |
