Found this in West Texas and was wondering what the notch was. I know the tip is broken like most I find out there but this one looks different from what I usually find.

Anyone have an idea what this could have been?

Any thoughts on this piece?
Seems 'rough' but too nice/uniform to be naturally formed.

Very old. Late Paleo maybe. Maybe broken Folsom or Clovis but I don't see the fluting coming up from where the base would have been.

I think the one on the left is a Nolan, the other one is possibly a Nolan as well.

Thank you sir. I have no clue about the different types of points

I’m still an amateur myself, but I’ve gotten really into over the last few years. The book Stone Artifacts of Texas Indians is a great resource and so is projectilepoints.net. Here is a link to info about Nolan points:

Found this one in southern Mason County (Texas). Pretty cool looking. Any input on it would be appreciated.

I also found this in Mason county. I can't really see what I consider to be a lot of flaking to my untrained eye. It is a little thicker than most arrowheads I've ever found. But it really does kinda have the general shape of an unfinished arrowhead. Did I find something here, or is it just a rock that I'm wanting to be something???? (I don't know anything about arrowheads)
