I saw some local farmers staring to harvest their field corn recently, and decided to hit up a friend for a walk through his standing corn before it got too late. I hate to whine, but it got hot & humid quick, the little bit of breeze there was, just made the corn stalk shadows dance faster on the ground, and the spider webs and sweat on my spectacles, got the better of my patience. I walked long enough to find these two pieces, before heading home for some adult refreshments.
I consider the black chert point with the tip gone to be a Bare Island, stemmed point. The shorter quartzite point I just wish I knew. I suppose it could be in the Brewerton Eared family, but with the basil thinning, being almost short flute like on one side, and some grinding on the basal ears and notches, and some hard to see diagonal flaking, it makes me want to hope it is an early archaic variant?
