That bifurcated has more trans paleo things about it to me with its slight base fluting than a bifurcated serrated kirk.

I think it's a bifurcated Hardaway now that ya washed it up

Click on the group pics on projectile points.com

You will see what I'm saying


Find of the day!!!

Nice! Just saw this after my other post....

Don't shoot me with that thing. Looks dangerous.

Transistional paleo/ early archaic

That slight fluted and bifurcated base

Hardaway.....

How old would that make it ?

Around 7000 -9000 BC ish I'm geussing.

I go to projectile points.com to research stuff

Pretty good nationwide ID site.

The more ya look at the site the more you retain and learn from it.

That's amazing !!!, and a great hobby...hope to find one some day.

Outstanding

We call those Frio points down here.

That's interesting
The hardaway range is like from PA down thru the southeast
Just into east texas a little
Then that frio point you have range is west and southwest Texas into mexico.

With a big gap in the boundaries and no overlap in central Texas
And time frames completely different .

But same style of point basically.


I really like the projectile point web site

Pick up excellent info fast from it
And learn schitt new all the time

So the Bifir one... does the material come from a local source? because any we find up here come from many hundreds of miles away down south direction. I believe migrations (trade routes) were north-south around here following the western rockies rather than east west like today.
Interesting how you guys find many consistantly, cool.

I really need to start looking now that the flood has washed away every leaf that was ever on my property.

Hell, there's an Indian mound not 1/2 mile from my front door.

I managed a nice little Washita, a crude knife, and a handle from a drill. One buffalo skull and two tiny cork bottles. Killed a beaver with my Chief special to top off the day.

Uncle found a big Geary and an awesome giant flint point with perfect notches and ears but the tip was broken off. Dad picked up a couple chert points both pretty crude.

Pic of the entire haul?

Forgot my phone at home today so no pics of anyone else’s goods and some peckerhead swiped my buffler skull before I could come back for it.

This thread is cool as heck.

Keep it going!

Just spit coffee....you fucghk!

Hunts,

Post some more of yours. Those are cool!

Kinda looks like what is named a big sandy around here in the base design


It's cool how points across the country have similar features seperated by regions and time.

Movement , knowledge , trade stuff.
I had an obsidian point before I sold off my stuff earlier this year.
Ain't none of that material around here this far away from the west.

you guys are lucky to have such easy pickings in your area. must have been more injuns down that way than here in PA. my best is a scraper made from a fossilized toad stool. i need to get out this spring when they start plowing again.
