FLARED BIT SPUD This flared bit Cahokia style spud is a fine example. It was found many years ago in Pike County, Illinois and it has been kept in several old collections over the years. This spud is made of Mill Creek chert from southern Illinois. It was made by flaking it into shape by percussion flaking, then grinding the surface until almost all of the flake scars were removed. The final step was polishing the entire surface.
