I found this arrowhead a number of years ago on my property. Any info from arrowhead experts as to type, etc.?
BTW, the color darkened as I was looking at it and it became dark flint colored in a matter of minutes. It had been buried when I pushed it up with my tractor.

That is a worn out Godley. No doubt in my mind. Size and shape are a match.
 

If that was found in IL I’d call it a Thebes, no doubt. In the SE, the Bolen bevel is from a similar time period and has a similar look. The TX Godley looks a bit similar but I’m not seeing any Godley’s with beveled edges. It has all the traits of an early archaic point, whatever it is. SE TX has a lot of petrified wood. The grain in this point looks like it could be pet wood.
 

Looks like petrified palm wood, it should have dots on the end of the grain if it is. Nice to see a local find.
Found at Dallardsville in Polk County. North of Beaumont about 60ish miles.
 

I live east of Beaumont, but we have a lease up in Newton and I have found some up there and around the lakes as well.
