I found the bigger piece yesterday. Came from a a tiny hump in a tiny corn field that apparently was the site of a knapping station with much quartz flakes, pieces, brokes and so far two complete points.
The smaller piece came from my cup full of flakes from the same site. I'd been trying to decide if that small piece was worked or random, until I found the bigger piece. They seem to have the same design.
What are they?

Big piece from the side. All the other surfaces looked like this.

Big piece from base end. The dot is pen, intened to coax the camera autofocus to "see" the plain white base.
