Found this today, suspect it's Paleo?

Very nice.

Hard to say whether it is Paleoindian or not.
I do not see any obvious attributes suggesting it to being that old.

This is a good site on Native American artifact identification. I'm a member. Someone there can identify your find for you.

Nate,
Your point does appear to be an early triangle point, possibly Paleo. It also looks similar to the Hardaway type, which are Dalton-era (9,000 years old +/-)

Keith I don't have FB , So that's out, the blade is worked very well, I said Paleo but do agree with swamp wolf it might be transitional/Dalton as well, it is unifaced and very well put together, I have found a couple others close there that are of the Dalton style. Hope you all enjoy seeing it.

Uniface eliminates the Hardaway idea.

Still could be a Paleo tool.

Swamp wolf what you think I got here found this right in the same area as the other. I was guessing early archaic or transitional points as well?? It has very nice flaking not easily seen in the picture.

The base corner is knocked off. It's a very thin point.

I think you may be correct, especially with it being found in same area as the other. Late Paleo or early Archaic.

But, it's just a guess. Projectiles similarly shaped were made/used in every time period, as were uniface blades.

I'm not as familiar with midwest types as I am with southeastern US types. Due to the lithics used down here (mostly coral agate), it is easier to see the knapping characteristics than on other materials that are less glass-like. So, it's just a guess, unless there is context.

Nate,
This is a poster that Kevin Dowdy of Bainbridge, Ga put together a few years ago. He photographed points from many Southeastern collections. The Suwannee point (red arrows) is one in my collection that my son found in a local river here. I've found a few other solid Paleo. One other (large 1st stage museum quality Dalton) has made it into one of his ID books. Also, I found a double fluted Clovis that has been photographed and documented by the University of Georgia.

Check out Kevin's stuff at www.artifactsguide.com

Wow, what a collection. Very cool information you just shared, I appreciate it. If you have pics of your double flutted Clovis would love to see it. Your boy's point is awesome.
Thank you

Found this in southeast Texas on my deer lease. I look for them every time I'm out there but not very successful at it.

Good one, thanks for sharing.

I'll take some pics and post soon....

Playing around with AI tonight.....

that's just wrong...

Great points guys.

I wish I had a collection anything like that poster. Super fine points. Most of what I find are very worn due to them being field finds.

Swamp Wolf, we gotta get you ‘unplugged’

Lol.....sometime today I will post pics of the REAL thing...

Took pics of a few of my cases....
Note beads made from seashells in upper right corner...found in a wash on a hillside. A buddy there with me picked up more than a dozen of those shell beads.




Double-fluted Clovis in center of this case. Made from Flint River chert. Found broken in half in road fill near a small creek. Documented by University of Georgia archeologist as Clovis find here in this area.

River finds (mostly with mask & snorkel, but some scuba in deeper holes)...including the Suwannee type on the poster (center right) and the 1st stage Dalton (center left). Also a fish vertebrae with hole drilled to use as jewelry.

Most recent finds, including this slate gorget (found in road fill). Slate does not occur this far south...traded?

Have lots more, many broken/damaged...but these are the main highlights of what my family and I have found over the years. We have spent many hours, as a family, looking. Some great memories and family bonding!!! We would pack a lunch and go...all day.
