The first pic I hope to show is of a point I would like help Identifying. One of the ears is broken off and I believe this point to be a Quad, but I'm not sure. The second pic is another point I would like help identifying. I don't have a clue where to start. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

relix, here's a great site for helping to ID points and Knives.

http://www.projectilepoints.net/

As for the types of those you have pictured, the first one does look like it could be a Quad or maybe a Beaver Lake. Is there any grinding along the sides and end of the base area? The second point looks like a Palmer to me. We find quite a few of these little serrated types in my area.

Here's a website I use for identifying points, it's from the Ohio historical society, has some very interesting reads on different cultures from the paleo to the late woodland period. http://www.oplin.org/point/images/what.jpg

Edit. Apparently I did'nt copy that link right. Just do a Google search on "Whats The Point Ohio indian artifacts" and it will take you to the link.
