I made a CW history video this morning for Today's Finds. It was hot this afternoon but I called a young friend, neighbor, & cousin who loves to hunt relics and artifacts. An exceptionally bright young man who appreciates the cultures of past Native Americans. We went to a field his family owns where we had both found good points in the past and the corn was already over a foot high. We found the artifacts on the orange towel. J.E. smiles with the point (or drill) he found. Nothing exciting but we had fun as usual. Is his artifact a drill or point? Need help in Tennessee. HH, Quindy.

The one pictured by itself is definitely a point... It would be considered an expanded notch point.
Maybe with a couple better photos of it from both sides and the state where it was found we might be able to figure out good idea of what type it is it could possibly be a Bolen sub-type.. ( early archaic)

Around here in this part of GA they call them "fish spear point" I dont know why though, maybe cause they look as if it could cut the water IDK.
You got some nice ones
