Thanks Pickaway. :icon_thumright:
 

that is really nice, in 35 years of collecting i only found one knobed stem point like that. i'd keep after that site for sure!
 

Great looking artifact mainer...nice find. That type is like a cross between a bottleneck and an Orient Fishtail or something? Wish I could be more specific just don't know your area that well. Regardless of type it's a real nice point.
 

Thank you guys. I dont find a lot of complete points, so when I do I get excited. I'll have to spend some time in this area. :thumbsup:
 

There is an Ohio Stemmed Lanceolate subtype that strongly resembles. Probably middle-later Paleo era (conjectural).

Seeing as people were probably following the retreating glacier edge north, bringing their technology with them, you might have a late survivor of a point type there that disappeared elsewhere by the time they made it where you are.

Or there might be no connection.

Nice piece !
 

I'm very curious about this point, to me looks like it was side notched, the reshaped. I hope matt pipes in.
I have very little experience with that far up North, so hopefully you will get more posts..
very nice find M.

Molly.
 

Reworked Ashtabula is what I think it is. How big is it. It kind of looks like those Danish daggers. Wouldn't that be interesting if that is what it was. Would tell a whole new story. :laughing7:..........Nice find Mainer keep them coming. We need some insitu's.....................HH........GTP :icon_thumright:

Lamoka is a good candidate on that piece above. I'll try and find pictures so you can look at Mainer.........................GTP :icon_thumleft:
