I hit one of my sites that I`ve hunted for years after the last big storms that came through found a couple things then as I was walking out I seen a few pieces and chips in a big washed out area about 4 feet deep and 50 yards long. What I think was a fire lane cut in about a week before that and the heavy rains had washed away. This is what I found its not the normal things I find.Two of the points are fluted on one side and one the broken bases in upper right corner looks like a Clovis type point. I need some expert opinions

Nice stuff, it does look old and matches up pretty well with a classic paleo tool kit (Clovis mostly, but Dalton too in some areas.) I'd sure keep an eye out on that spot.

The material looks like Alabama quartzite.
 
you got some old ones there,maybe 7 great job :read2: jamey
well it all looks old.wow..
 
Wow, what a great spot you found, almost all of it looks paleo imo. Some classic paleo tools in there as well. I'm hitting the button.
 
Nice 12,000 year old assemblage. Paleo for sure is my guess. Unifaced tools are spectacular. Great finds. Wow.
