Maybe you'll get lucky and Matt R. will tell you what you got, he's the real I.D. expert. I still think that middle bottom one looks old- of course now that I said that I will find out differently. It's not a type that I see in my area much if at all, perhaps that is why it has grabbed my attention. Interesting stuff- can't wait to see what you come up with next-

Morning,

Matt's your man on these....If I were to venture a guess I would call them....Abasolo....2 Garys with the more pointed stems and lastly a hard to call one because the workmanship isnt real great, but perhaps an Angostura or Uvalde. My 2 cents.

Atlantis

The one at the top left and the one on bottom are both from the Guilford family (Guilford Stemmed, Archaic) and are very common in your area. The two at the top right are probably Morrow Mountain, the one in center being pretty classic for the type (Archaic). Funny how you mention the Gary point Atlantis - the MM were actually called Gary over east until identified as a new type from North Carolina specimens in the early 60's.

Cliff Jackson is the man to contact on North Carolina points. He's from Warrenton, a veteran collector and a good friend. If you ever make it over that way, he has a mill that he's pretty much converted into a museum - drop in and give him a titty twister for me. He's also the president of the AACA and you can reach him from that website.

Cliff is at Hammes Mill there at Warrenton. He has some great artifacts and I'm sure can help you out with your collecting endeavors.
