what did I just buy?

Got these of a fellow in Arkansas as a partial trade on a Damascus knife. Said he and his buddy found them in the area.

I don't know the styles with them being from Arkansas but look similar to the styles we have in Florida. But they are from the stemmed Archaic period, around 3500 years old.

Cool trade looks like.
When you come upon a track or trail you do not know, follow it to the point of knowing.
