Paleo blade

[tomclark]

Big 'Ol blade, rather porous, was about 5 feet down in the muck at the edge of Lake Tarpon, Pinellas Co, FL. Slightly waisted about a third of the way up the base and ground, some small thinning flutes on the base. Could be Suwannee not needed to "finish".

Thanks,
It's made of coastal plains chert and is almost chalky/porous from age, maybe from the tannic muck.
