Learned something new today

I still do not know point type, but I did find out what the lithic is today. I found this point about thirty years ago in Kit Carson county Colorado. and it is one that does not fit the Northern High Plains point type. Back then I called it Adena but that is a stretch and a Robbins Adena as well. The lithic was also a puzzle. I knew it was local or some what local for the amount of flakes found in various campsites. and I did not think it was heat treated as well. The lithic is from the Ogallala Formation, Here is a link ARTIFACTS OF KANSAS advanced information
Ogallala silicified sediment.
But I am open to what type you might think it is, A fellow member has a GB point type as Gypsum Cluster Dart point Late Archaic . It could be but still a stretch.

Nice point when we see red on material that color it is usually heat treated.

Here as well, it can be blood red to a pink color. But what lead me to the conclusion that it was not, was the amount of flakes with the same color pattern with no natural solid color to trace it back too.
