can anybody id this?

[Older The Better]

i found this in a dirt patch where a hay bail had been sitting. at first i thought it was a partial tool but after wiping off the dirt a saw that it was nearly complete. the only part that doesn't come to an edge is the spot where the opposite ear broke off. i haven't picked up anything like it and didn't come up with a very good match in my arrowhead book so here i am to pick your brains. anybody have an id?

That is what you call a well used and broken point. More or less a heartbreaker.

I'm looking for a type so i can get an date range, ive found very old tools potentially 8 - 10000 years and tons of flakes there and I'm trying to get an idea of the age. i don't think this one is that old but i wont know without an id

Size?

That would help a bunch

oops sorry a couple inches not big but also quite worked down like old digger said

Probably an exhausted knife, to big for an arrowhead

I'm going to go with an atlatl point.

Looks like it is a beveled point, look at Bolen Bevel, Taylor and Big Sandy and compare to yours You can see them in the point I. D. on the web if you don't have a id book.

Hard to ever say for sure. Well worn down. They must have really liked the material to keep sharpening it down. Nice workmanship that guy had.

Yeah old digger, it could be a dart point too.

I just know it weren't an airyhead. :-)
