Came up with a knife

[Jatrox]

Back in the field and my wife found what I believe is a knife. Looks to be resharpened anyway. With the flakes and spearpoints it has to be close to a camp by the creek. I'll find it eventually. Any idea on the time frame? I know the village that was close to here was early 1700's to 1830 but there has been Clovis found in this county. No, I'm not suggesting this is even close to Clovis, just saying the occupation here goes way back. But, is this older than the 1700's time frame? There has been a fair amount of Hopewell points found in this region also

Its a nice one. It sounds like the area will produce many more for you if you have time to look.
Good luck. I am unsure on the type.

I would say its an Adena variety.

Thats what I see based on the form and description of location.

Approaching a needle tip I think you’re right on about the sharpening. Nice complete piece.

Yeah, they call that the beavertail base.

That would be a Waubesa.
All day.
If, found in my neck of the woods…👍
