Native American Flint Drills
Here are two drills of different styles. One was probably made from an exhausted arrowhead. The other has a double bit. They are 1-5/8″ and 1-1/4″. Indiana counties recovered from will be supplied to the buyer.
Native American Pencil Drills
This type of drill is hard to date because this type was made throughout Native American history. They are 2-1/8″ and 1-3/4″ Both were found in the same field in the 1970’s.
Flared Base Drill
This drill began as a drill instead of an arrowhead repurposed into a drill. I believe it is Flint Ridge flint. The base is not broken it has fine flaking all around but hard to see in the pictures. It is hard to pin an age on this because Native Americans made and used this type of drill throughout history.

This is a very heavily patinated drill. It has an excellent shaft and a finely worked base. It is difficult to date this style because they were used throughout Native American history.
Hornstone Pencil Drill
This is a Hornstone pencil drill. It’s hard to tell the age of drills without it having a base from a repurposed arrowhead. Drills were used throughout prehistory. This one is very well made and would probably fall into the Archaic time period. It shows some smoothing from use at one end.

Here is a pair of Southern Indiana Hornstone drills. One was fashioned from a spent Turkeytail point. The other one is possibly older but there is no way to be sure.
Heartbreaker Drill
I felt this one to be worthy even though it’s tip is broken. It appears to have broken in ancient times and is truly a heartbreaker. It is also a great candidate for restoration.
Drill
Here is a pencil shaped drill that shows a bit of use. It is difficult to determine it’s age because it has no base to identify. So it could possibly have been made even in the Paleo Period.
Stemmed Drill
This is a nice quality dril made from a Middle Archaic Period Stone Square Stem Point. It is very well made and in great shape.
Dalton Drill
An awesome drill with the sides worn smooth from a lot of use.
Native American Flint Drill
The flaking on this one doesn’t appear to be older than the Archaic or Woodland Periods. This was possibly made as a drill but was probably an arrowhead at one point.
