good to see you back. I know lots of stuff got traded. The same tribes may have occupied that area as well as the areas nearer to me. Good luck! I hope you find many more in that area!

Speaking of trading, I just got out this morning and found a crazy traded-in chert point...they sure did!

Id love to see a pic of your point. The Occoneechee tribe controlled trade during protocontact era. They had control of 500 miles due to their language. They had a language that was easily translated. Cool deal! Glad to see your finding! I'm surprised you aren't snowed in. I have a white ground.

Sorry I didn't reply yesterday, didn't see it... I usually try and get out once or twice a weekend and if I find 1 or 2 points it's a good day, but I've been on a real good streak lately
