feel free to post pics ask questions and give your advice.. Im not a expert but theres a few off them on here



heres mine this is a surface find from Menard Tx. little help

[KickerPoint79]

Good idea. I have some I need to put on here for the gurus to look at. As for yours I'm not sure of the ID on it. Nice little point though.

Well we start with a tough one. Im going to say it is a Lange just judging from one pic and not being able to see the flaking. Middle Archaic.

I call this one "reworked paleo w/ impact fracture".

maybe a broke Kisatchie..Where did you find it

[Copper87]

or a broke Hoxie just from looking at my book

[GarGuy]

Copper87, the point you have is seriously exhausted. Been resharpened many times. it was origionally much larger. Exhausted points are always tough because we don't have a clear idea of how they looked new.

What about this?
It appears to be an axe? It's sharpened completely on one side. It's got some heft to it

It is a chopper. I will try to take some pictures tonight of some common South Texas points and post them for others to ID their points.

I've got a few. All were found on my old lease between Freer and Laredo. I found close to 100 in the three years I hunted there.

The black one was by far the best arrow head I've ever found.

Here's some of what I found last weekend. Mainly tools/scrapers, pre-forms and brokes, but I am not sure what to call the point on the top row second from left with the broken base on one side. It's about 3.5". I'd guess it to be some kind of knife?

I would have to say your right.. Its just a funny looking point

[GarGuy]

Gargantuan. that's a Kerville knife.
