i found this in march and still not sure

Hello and welcome to the forum!

I don't know what kind of point you have, definately got me stumped. I do know it's not an Etley tho. The stem is too narrow and the blade form just isn't right. I would also say it's from the Woodland period from the style and flaking. Etley is late Archaic.

What state did you find it in? That would help a lot in narrowiing it down. I'm from IL and can find nothing in the Overstreet in my area that looks much like it other than a couple of types of Turkeytails and I don't believe it's one of those either.

Whatever it is, it's a beauty! Congrats on the find! Did you find it in the water as the in-situ picture suggests? If so keep looking in that water!

yes that is the way i found it and it was in jan. and i found the two others the same day and a frend found 3 other points. was told an etley just couldent find any like it. in any book i have. im in north mo.

Not sure on the type, it's out of my region. But what a beauty you found! Great in-situ as well, that's a killer piece!

SMITH.

oops not the right two lost the pics but its these tow. and this years finds.and the wall

OH I see, Kings and Apple Creek come to mind looking at the pic of the 2 next to eachother. Some kind of Corner notch maybe woodland era. Neat finds:)

Post # 53066 has some others also:) Dickson? and something really Killer!

its been a good year for me to fill a case in one year just wow took 10 years for the rest but this broke my hart. but killer to me

Wow! You have found some really cool points! Congrats and may your luck continue. I like the way you have them displayed too.

As for the first point you posted I did some more looking last night and I think it may be what is just called a Base Tang knife. They are found in your/our area of the mid-west.

The only other type I could come up with that was even close is a type called a Oauchita. It is an earlier type (Mid-Archaic) than the base tang and is found mainly in Texas but is related. Whatever it is it's still a beauty!

i only have two books. but this is what i have, but i dont think it a smith. someone else said Oauchita but i have no pics in the two books i have.
