Specfically the North eastern portion of Nevada. Every summer I go to Ely, Nevada and search for Native American artifacts. I work as an intern for the USDA and help protect Native American sites. I know the Shoshone were dominant, but were there others?
You’re a dork! But I love you!
As far as I know, those native American peoples live in town and work with the white peoples. So I call them artifacts because they are pieces of their history.
Can anybody help me find information about artifacts of Native American: Fox?

Native American indian artifact?
I was shopping in a thrift store and noticed some Native American items, but this one item , I have no idea what it is or was used for. Looks like a large artist brush?? The handle is approx. 10 inches long, and 1 1/2 inches wide. The handle when first looking at it looks to be bamboo, but is not, it is a hollowed out bone and is polished with carved lines making it look like bamboo. Coming out from one end is a bunch or tuft of soft greyish horsehair. The hair is approx. 4 inches , so total length is approx.14 inches. Any one know? thx : )
What are some tips on finding Native American artifacts?
My dad has found lots of Indian artifacts. But he has mostly just stumbled upon these while going out hunting. I actually go out to look for them, and I havnt had any luck. I would think some of the best places to look would be along creeks and stuff like that, but I havn’t found anything yet, can anybody give me some advice to increase the likelyhood of me finding something? -not sure which category to put this under-
Whatever, I enjoy looking for Indian artifacts, as I have a lot of Native American ancestors. Whatever I find I keep, and will one day hand down to my children.
There is no way I’m going to spend hours looking for an Indian Artifact, then after finding one precious artifact, am going to send it to some western tribe when they weren’t even the ones whose ancestors did make the artifacts. If they hold them so sacred they should buy them, that way we would have at least a small reward for our work.
Have native american artifacts that have been in my family long time. Need help identifying them suggestions?
I know that I need to take photos of these but I need information sources to contact about what some of the items might actually be as some of them are broken.
Thank you,
How does one go about requesting a DNA test on an artifact?
I’m looking to repatriate an artifact (through the Native American Repatriation Act) claimed to have belonged to an ancestor but don’t know where to begin.
Do I take a DNA test? If so, what type? Do I then contact the Dept of the Interior?
Anyone know anything about DNA tests and matches or how to go about doing this?
Thanks in advance.
I’m asking this for a friend. He is not an enrolled member, although his father was.

Where is a good place in Erie, PA to find Native American artifacts?
Some people have suggested the bayfront, but where?
The Eriez were wiped out by the Iroquois centuries ago. They no longer exist as a viable tribe. I don’t know how that affects the distribution of artifacts.
Where can I find info and pictures on ancient native american artifacts?
My brother-in-law has found alot of arrowheads and such where he is living. There are also some tools that he can’t figure out what they are. I was hoping to be able to find a photo of this and maybe some information about it so that I could tell him what it is.
