DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Ancient Projectile Points From Oregon's CRUMP LAKE An Artifact Collection Since ancient cultures first discovered the remote Warner Valley in south central Oregon, in what is now high desert, the people found sustenance and shelter to their liking in the highlands and along the shore around the 300 foot deep lake that once filled the 60 mile long valley at the end of the last Ice Age. Over thousands of years, as the lake receded and left shallow remnant lakes behind, the people continued to hunt and fish around Crump Lake and the other lakes in the valley. This continued for 12,000 years and more, up until the late 1800's. Here are representative authentic artifacts from those cultural groups. From ancient pioneering groups who were in this remote valley long before the Clovis culture/technology was brought into the Basin and Pacific Northwest. From the end of the Ice Age up until the last aboriginal American tribes left the high desert and European American farmers and cattlemen tried to make a go of life in Warner Valley after the Civil War. From 12,000 years ago to as recent as 200 years ago. Stone tools which served them well for so long. Knives, spear and lance points, dart points and arrow heads.
