Help with ID

[rls2040]

I bought these on eBay because I wanted points,etc from different parts of the country,the seller gave no info other than found in USA, not much help. The only one I have a idea on is the first one,maybe a Savannah River? The other two look more like a blade to me,ground stems,the second one is unifaced,steep bevel on right side,very little work on back,predominately on stem.The third one is beveled on both sides on front,back is almost or is unifaced but has more work on back than second one.

Look like north central things to me. Material reminds me of Burlington too.

Rock, I think you are right, I identified the smaller of the four as a Lamoka, middle archaic ,found in Northeastern states.Overstreet 12 th edition says it is called a Bradley Spike in the southeast.I see the similarity but Overstreet says a Bradley has a stem that contracts,as you see in the pic mine does not have a contracting stem...Thanks for your help, you seem to be the guy that almost always helps me first, I appreciate that a lot....Carl

My bad rock, I didn't even put a picture of the Lamoka because I thought I had it identified,and I paid $3 dollars each for these plus combined shipping. Here are the pics

Oh by the way I love all of them and for three bucks field grade is ok with me as long it isn't broken or missing parts.....I may be dealing with a obsession,lol

Carl I think you got your monies worth and I think you are right on the type

$3 is cheap enough for field grade. As long as the buyer is happy and the seller is happy its all good. I can tell you though it isnt a spike. Some knifes like what you have there has no given name. Kinda like finding a scraper. HH, rock

Thanks rock for letting me know not all knives have names,I think I thumbed thru Overstreet and I found nothing that looked like the knives,some close but each possibility had at least one major identifier that was different. Overstreet makes quite a few misleading references,especially in the list they put that says"also see whatever. No way was it a Bradley spike,they have rounded stem..thanks again for your input,Carl

There are other types of spikes. I got some ugos that are spikes. Here is a couple of them. Heck the 1 is crooked.

Hey rock, best I can determine all of the points/knives are from Lamoka Culture 3500-2500 BC,Northeast US,no specfic names so I am just recording them all as Lamoka Culture...Carl
