Well I found a point the other day and somebody wanted to know the type of it. Well all my guides I have looked it wasnt there. So I had to go online to peach state site to look at local points from my area. It might be a new type I am not sure. But the name I got from that site was Kiokee Creek Point. It dates 3838 B.p. to 3358 B.P. It is Late Archaic Period. Its described as being a crude point and mine is crude. I believe its a match. If anyone knows different lets here it.

I'm sure its a new type. I really believe what you have there is a hafted end scraper. The notch was to facilitate hafting. Much like this 1.

that's why you can't find a projectile point type. Because it's not one.

Did you type that?

looks to me to be a busted piece of rock, you have some yellowish patina on some parts and white newer looking rock on others, and if it is or was a point at one time,there isnt much left to even identify it

Yes I know I find a lot chewed up by the tractor as in pieces. Stems, tips and middles. I figure quartz is hard enough to make it through the blades and this style of a point usually makes it. I have found another one like it and here it is. The one with the black is the newest and the other is the one in this post. No doubt they both have been through the disc a few times. The black one is a broken artifact with a nice flute. Thanks for the interest.

Could be Tom. But I am not an expert on this.

In order to be an "arrow head," it would have to fit on an arrow. What I see in the photo looks to me like it's to large to fit on an arrow shaft. Arrow shafts aren't very large around, and the point needs to fit in a notch cut in the shaft. Atl atl points are a little larger than arrow heads, but still have to be notched onto a shaft. I can't tell for sure from your photo, but it just looks to be way to thick to fit on a shaft. That leaves the choices of being a knife, a scraper or a pretty rock. I've been guilty of it in the past, and I see lots and lots of people call points "arrow heads," that are way too large to have ever fit onto an arrow shaft. True arrow heads are surprisingly small. Could you show a side view of the point with something for size comparison?

Both of them are thick. They look like they had stems on them at one time but have broke off. I have already stored them away at the moment. I have found 2 points that are true. Not much damage on them and they are small. I have pics of them. Take a look. Both of these were found on the upper level field in a 30 ft square spot. The other 2 bigger ones were found on a lower field but still a good distance from the creek.
