Can I ask you for close ups of the point to the right in the center. It looks like possibly a Rhyollite Cumberland point. Is it fluted on both sides. If so for a crude Rhyollite Cumberland it is absolutely beautiful. The material is all that holds it back. I would appreciate it if you could post larger close ups of that point. Thanks and that is a beautiful frame of artifacts.................GTP.........

THE POINT TO THE RIGHT IS ONLY FLUTED ON ONE SIDE, A NICE FIELD FIND. HERE IS A CLOSE UP PICTURE, OF THIS POINT.

After looking at it further it does look like a cumberland point. The ears are pronounced enough and i can see basal grinding........................The picture is a little blurry but I am pretty sure of it. Why don't you take it out of the frame and post it by itself with a title like "Cumberland point?" and people will tell you what they think. I personally feel that is a cumberland point and almost flawless as is. A nice personal find. I wish I could find one. I have owned them before but never found one.........GTP
