I found this deer hunting in Northwest Arkansas as a kid. It was on a large slate bank, sticking out of the side of a hill, next to a clear creek. (I would love to go back to that spot again to do some different type of hunting, since the artifacts are "thick" around there according to the guys we were hunting with.)
I thought it was natural at first, but after a closer look...it seemed to be ground down to a wedge at the tip, and I thought it might had been used to split open slate layers. I think it was left there, as it served no other purpose than at the slate bank.
What do you guys think? I don't know what it is made of other than hard stone.
