White Flint Elephant Head with Crystal Inclusion

Another highly complex flint find from my site, showing numerous animal head profiles, elephant, bear, ape, and even a whole image of a suspected rodent, which could be the long extinct kimbetopsalis simmonsea.

Above: an elephant head profile likeness facing left, notice the similarity in the 'splayed trunk', with the previous post, also a whole rodent likeness, the trunk now becoming a tail.

A simple bear head impression facing right.

Flint Elephant Head Effigies

Two more worked flint effigies from my site, both showing simple elephant head impressions facing right. As always the stones have much more figurative content, the minimum age of these artworks, according to the fossil record and climate conditions is 100,000 years old.

Below, three more flint sculptures showing elephant head impressions, all from my site:

1. Flint Elephant Head Art

Many more elephant impressions can be found on older posts on this blog and Omniglyphs Blog.

Flint Blade Tool with Centralized Fossil Sea Shell

Another blade tool from my site, as always face profiles are numerous in my materials. Suspected hominid side on views and a subtle elephant impressionist artwork. The fossil sea shell is perfectly centralized, which I have identified as a possible Diodora shell (Keyhole Limpet) Late Cretaceous till recent. This is not my only tool find with a fossil inclusion, this Mesolithic pick has a suspected rare Spriggina fossil of the Pre-Cambrian period 550MYA+.
