Lol, the Earth is having a heat wave….

From The NY Times:

“An airport in Iran recorded a heat index of 152 degrees Fahrenheit — conditions beyond what scientists have said humans can normally withstand — on Sunday. The heat index reached a life-threatening 152 degrees in the Middle East.”

So I guess you don’t like the points then? That’s really why we are all here.
 

You and I are getting the same insane humid/ hot days (and nights). That's a nice group; I haven't found a good triangle in awhile myself.
 

I really like the Lightning Bolt Upper Mercer one in the middle!
That’s the only field find in the group. Hamilton far left. Guntersville far right and everything else not sure. The one you mentioned is probably Early Archaic due to the base is ground smooth like a Big Sandy.

I did mow yesterday but a creek hunt is minimum 4 hours so I didn’t want to be out there that long. AC is working great now just in time to.
 

It’s been a while since I’ve found a good Triangle. All past creek finds on most of these. I’d be out right now but we are having a heatwave in the upper 90s without the heat index. Hope you enjoy.
NW Georgia
Very nice. I like the lightning strike one too. It has sort of a Dalton look on the base. Number 6 is killer ancient.

The top middle 4 all look very similar not sure if they are the same type or not. All were found in different areas of Bartow county GA. The S one was found 30 miles away from the others. It was the only thing I found in that field that day in 2018. Owners son which is around my age asked to see some pictures of what I had been finding. Idk he was a collector and after he saw that one I lost permission. I had been walking the land for 5 years. His dad was a cool guy.
 

When you look at the Mississippian time period when they made triangles it is very short compared to older cultures. It was also the last knapping culture so sites with triangles are usually right on the top level and very thin. Good sites with triangles are not that common in my area.
The Guntersville I found last December it’s the finest one I’ve ever found of the type. It was a creek find, thanks
 

Congratulations on the beautiful Triangle points!
Thanks I’m ready for some more 😃
With this heatwave it’s very possible I will be able to get back out there and find some more in a week or so
 

Is the 2nd from the right have a broken base? Looks like a stemmed point lol.
 

It’s actually a tiny stem. Only one I’ve ever seen like it. Kind of blends in doesn’t it?
That's def something I've never seen. Kinda changes the term triangle lol. So I'm not stealing your thread, I'm gonna post a few that I've found over the years in one . Give me your thgts :icon_thumleft:

Nice finds!
 

I saw the weather Sunday and got excited saying no rain for 10 days. Low and behold it rained all night and for the next 3 days in a row. No idea when I will get back. Thanks for all the likes everyone
