FLOYD RITTER COLLECTION

   This picture shows a few of the artifacts that have been gathered together over the past several years in a private collection located in the central United States. This picture shows a wide range of material.
   The frame on the wall at the top left contains several Neolithic daggers from Europe. The frame next to it is full of Cahokia related Mississippian artifacts. The next frame contains several historical beaded knife sheaths and pipe tomahawks. The frame to the right is filled with several different types of quartz, granite and slate banner stones.
   The two large glass cases on the floor contain a wide variety of different cultural material, mostly from North America. The top shelves are filled with different styles of Mississippian ceramic pots. Notice the "head pot" in the case on the right. This case also contains quite a few discoidals on the third and fourth shelves. There are several different types of pipes on the second shelf. The bottom shelf contains many axes and more discoidals.
   The case on the left contains a lot of spades and some axes on the two lower shelves. Along with the various types of ceramic pots, the top two shelves are also filled with several different types of banner stones.
