What do I have?

[SportsmanAll]

What is this oddly ear’d artifact? Just a wider cutting diameter arrowhead? Help me out here please.

Possibly the lower portion of a triangular point with the top broken off. Looks like obsidian. You must be out west in the U.S.

Could be a broken, worked piece. They didn't always make a perfect point and would discard the rejects.

It’s definitely obsidian. I suppose I should have clarified. I know it’s a point, I just haven’t found one it’s this wide of a base. I was wondering if it was a certain type based off the photos.

Hello Sportsmanall!
What region was it found?

Hmmmm. Hard to tell. It is finely worked on both sides, makes me think it wouldn’t have been too long of a point. it’s so hard to tell

Little triangle point ..... more common than you’d think

Could be a triangle type point back or maybe the center portion of a long eared elko,where it would have been hafted and broke off the main point.

Looks like a good candidate to me.

 

[SportsmanAll]

I agree. Gunther point.

Not in my area. Perhaps yours tho.

 

[smokeythecat]

I also think it's the broken base to a point.

I agree, its a triangle point broken base. I have found several out west (white and obsidian).
