The North blades I've seen are usually much larger, but I guess it could be. The North is the preform for Hopewell Snyders points. The point is interesting. I can't decide whether it's a Table Rock or an unusual Snyders. Is the base heavily ground? You're in the right location for Hopewell finds. Gary

Those are a couple of real nice looking artifacts.

Great to hear, thanks. I am a novice and use just a garret ace 350 mostly, these times I was just looking for artifacts and this was my first point, I was having a hard time with ID, yes the base of the stem is worked to a sharp edge also. The preform is my wife's first aswell and we found in a 2 day and probably 50 ft apart.

Nice! I bet you are just scratching the tip of the iceberg there.

I was thinking Hopewell as I found chunks of what I think is red clay pottery nearby, and I struck red and grey clay digging in nearby bedrock pockets.



My friend thinks it is "Vinette" pottery but I don't think its that old, could be though.https://www.historymuseum.ca/cmc/exhibitions/archeo/ceramiq/pot21e.html
