Welcome.

This is a photo collection of ground-side stone hand and finger tools from northern New Mexico, USA.

This website was created to solicit interest in ground side stone tools from a university or research member of the archaeological community.  The slate tool on the home page has been authenticated via use-wear analysis and I would like to continue scientific examination of the lithic assemblage with an interested party.  Excavations for tools in situ at my site would be welcomed - opportunities may be endless.  Please contact me at admin [at] groundsidestonetools [dot] com if you are interested.

Thanks for visiting my website, and good luck to you in your future endeavors.

T. Good
