Projectile Point? Please Help Identifying

[thecloudsplitter]

Hello all! I have found what I believe to be a projectile point of some kind, although I am unsure - hence this post. I unearthed it near an archaeological site where authentic projectile points have been discovered before. The location is Saugus, MA.

Any information is seriously appreciated. Thank you all so much!

You have the basic shape but I see no altering by man. Mother nature can fool you!

Aw man I was suspicious of this! The stone used for projectile points in this area was historically Saugus Rhyolite, which is known for naturally flaking off with sharp/clean edges. This stone seemed to have one naturally flat edge, the other side seemed serrated but weathered to me. The ridges on it really made me wonder, the symmetry seemed too perfect. Thanks for the reply.

Are those all the same side?

Tony got it right--a geofact. Keep Looking.

Yes they're all shot with the stone sitting on the paper the same way, with the ridges facing up. The first three pictures were shot under a lamp light, second two were in daylight.
