I helped a fellow on Arrowheadforms I.D. several pieces years ago. There were some 40 - 50 pieces if memory serves me correctly. I think the guy was from KY or NC and had inherited his dad's collectioin. Anyway, he offered to gift me these pieces for helping him. I told him he should keep these along with the others in his father's collection but he insisted that I should have them. They meant nothing to him evidently so I accepted. He was not gonna keep them anyway. I thought they both were Adena culture from the pics and the fact that he said he thought that his father's collection was from KY, IN, OH--personal finds too. They are made from Coshocton(?) and Burlington(?) I believe although I'm terrible at material I.D. Since I have them in hand, I'm somewhat puzzled about the bi-pointed one. My knowledge is lacking severely about this culture (and others) but I want to know whether I can rule out a Turkey-tail that is un-notched and made of some "Non-Typical" material. I know these things: Hornstone was the preferred lithic for the type and they are usually found in caches and ceremonially broken. So, any input is appreciated and also is required!
