CAHOKIA RELATED This picture illustrates several different types of artifacts that were found on Cahokia culture sites in southern Illinois. The two spuds are very fine examples that were made from chert and polished all over. There are two Ramey knives in the center, a Kaolin chert chisel at the upper left, a spade or adze at the upper right and a perforated discoidal in the lower center. Other items in the picture include fishhooks made from deer bones, shell beads and double & triple-notched Cahokia arrow points. The spud on the left measures 8 11/16 inches (22.1 cm) long.
