I'm still debating lol too many different point types that shape haha

Maybe one of the TN guys will stop in and tell us what it is. I never find anything in that shape that's whole.

An awesome find, that's what!

Checkout Frazier and see if the base fits.

I did a search for your region and it looks like it may be a Mississippian lanceolate, possibly a ''Dallas'', ''Guntherville'' or ''Ichetucknee''. You may want to better research it, just trying to help even though not from your area. Awesome find!

My first thought was Stanfield. Depends on where you're located.

Thanks guys it is very twisted so that's got me stumped

Any ideas on the material? is it from your local source?

 

[painterx7]

Yes it's local I'm gonna say ft Payne

Nice ! I'd kind of call it an Agate Basin.

 

[painterx7]

I was thinking the same but it's the first I've found or even held for tgat matter

 

[Lone Star]

I' love 'em , cause they're so old. Right on that Early Archaic/Paleo time line
They tend to pretty worn out when you do come across them. That's the name of my screen shaker, "Ms. Agate" as it was the first point I found on her.

That's a nice story I thank you for your help as well

 

[jamey]

nice one painter,i think it looks like a guntersville.but if the sides are ground........

Painter - I have found similar points in your region and they're a bit of a stumper for me. I believe they're an early archaic point. I don't think they're a Stanfield proper but possible related. I entertained the idea of Agate Basin but that doesn't fit for a couple of reasons. I also thought about a Tennessee River knife (see Red Tully's books) but I think what you have is earlier. That's a great example and that Olive / Purple seems to be a common material for the type. I'm sorry I can't provide anything concrete, only I've searched the same search and haven't typed it quite yet.

Nice find my friend.
