Thanks, that was a cool quick read. If the point breaks upon impact the hunters could salvage their spears and attach a new point. I also think a fluted point would allow the animal to bleed out faster. And they look badass as well haha!!

I have been watching a few you tubes on how the flute is made. Talk about holding your breath. I am surprised that this way of making points was not passed down. Thanks for the read.
