We are in middle Georgia and we find a ton of quartz, most believed to be swift creek, hitichi, and creek indians...your points are very similar to ours

Those are thousands of years older than any known Tribes that were in your area. The Bifurcate type is most likely a LeCroy as you said,which is an Early Archaic type. They had a very wide distribution range. The other is most likely a Palmer Point and also Early Archaic. Both are very nice examples of the types.

2 very nicely made points from quartz which is one of hardest materials to work. As Reaper has said they are older than the documented tribes that we know of. Not much Paleo in this area but some Archaic points are found. Woodland and Mississippian mostly is what you will find.

I agree with Grim. LeCroy on top and Palmer or possibly Ecusta on the bottom one. Great early finds.

Great finds. Very old early, early archaic points. Weren't that many folks around, from what we know in that time period. Probably a small village nearby or hunters going through.
