This part of a point was found in Williamson, County Tennessee on top of the ground by me. I think it is super cool how the white part of the flint on the left looks like a point. I wish I had found the rest of it to see how big it was. Any ideas as to the type it was?

nice unique material.
 

Off topic but here is the atlatl I dug in 2014. Do ya’ll think it is an atlatl? I was told that but have no idea. I live in Middle Tennessee where there were Woodland as well as Mississippian period mound builders.

How big is it? Might be a knife
 

Page 435, Overstreet Arrowhead Guide. Morrow Mountain (type). Possibly 9000 years old! Similar types found in TN and KY. Value: $12-$24. Nice find! I am not an expert on arrowheads. Further research required! ╦╦C
 

The base is chipped up making it fairly difficult to ID. It looks like a side notched point so I'm not thinking Morrow Mnt. There are so many side notch forms from that area it could be one of several types. A nice field grade one though.

I will have to look up that type. Thanks TerryC.

Could be and Adena but it looks more like a Kirk to me. They tend to be thicker and bigger than most Adenas. Just my thoughts.
