I do carry ancient history with me every day. Mike hunts for Native American artifacts. He had this small point made into a necklace for me for many years. I were it 24/7 except for the week we had the setting repaired as it was getting worn. It is a bifurcated point indicated by the deep notch in the base. Dating estimated is 8000-6000 BC. The cool rock is old, too.

Well this one clearly caused a bit of consternation and here's me thinking it would be easy! So not many entries to choose from, so Ive gone for the following:
1st Place - Terse with 'Productions of Time'

Fascinating subject - check. Technically excellent photo - check, ancient - check and a snappy title toboot.
2nd Rizole with Fossils - can't get much more ancient and historical, but very nicely lit and sensitively shot.

3rd to Starzee with the wonderful First Nations arrowhead, mostly as its an artform very close to my heart, but also as it is incontivertably ancient and as I said earlier, 'living history'. and I want one too!

So its over to Ted for the next round!

That was a surpise! I thought it would be either rizole's fossil or Starzee's arrowhead. (Well, I wasn't too far off.) Thanks, Bill, and congrats to all.

Congrats terse rizole and Starzee (our very own rocks : )
Rizole your rock fragment is similar shape to Star’s. Is it big/small? In a museum? At home?

 

[RoseCat]

Congrats terse Ted!! Well done! Kudos to rizole and Starzee Star... loved both your images, and of course your wonderful backstory, Star.

At home, about 2 inches wide. Found on a beach in East Yorkshire that's known for having lots of these types of fossils falling out of the eroding cliff face.
