Dang its ugly

[rock]

Well I havent posted this one yet due to it being so ugly, lol. But what type is it? It looks ground down at the base, 1.5 inches in length, 1 inch wide and I believe it has a fire pop on one side near the tip, IDK. Found in N Ga. Thanks for some help on it, rock

I can't call that ugly. In fact, I think it's one of your better recent post, or anyone's recent post for that matter. I don't think it is a fire pop in it, but instead an iron deposit that has rusted or weathered out of it. This is truly a cool little piece. It is a rework for sure. It looks like it was modified in a manner that would allow for a different type of hafting. If you notice the stem is thick and looks like an upside down "Y". At the fork in the "Y" a flake was reduced, giving this ugly duckling a bit after hafting. I think this point was reworked and used as a small adze or chopper of some sort. Nice one any way Rock! Glad you got out and worked some of that boredom out.

I was almost thinking it might of had the part near the tip removed and then turned around and hafted to a handle and then used as a tool? Seeing it was sharpened down to a nub. The same way my thumb is holding it in the pic. Almost like a fluted piece. Wouldnt you know I finally find one with the little legs still on it and it is damn UGLY

Looks like it might of been a knife at one time. Now I guess it would be considered a tool.

I like that old bifuricate base. They always get my heart to pounding. Looks like they got their use out of it. Nice un.

Not that bad of a find! Nice! I have a few that are similar, with that not so good looking features, but if it was the only point found on that outing, it was worth the effort.
