RINGWOOD — If you've always craved a chance to see some old New Jersey projectile points, hide scrapers and other stone tools from as early as 6,000 B.C., a June event at Ringwood Manor State Park is your ticket..
Organized by the North Jersey Highlands Historical Society, the June 13 event will display and explain examples of the early stone tools and let collectors bring their own artifacts for expert assessment — and possible disappointment.
The society ran a similar event in 2014, said Ralph Colfax, the historical society president. Attendees came with items they uncovered in their yards, in a family collection or while hiking and brought them forward, Colfax said. Some were legitimate, he added. Some just looked like it.
