    Type?

    Found this little blunt paleo in Fredricksburg, Tx looks to be rootbeer flint but I have no idea what type it is.

    Yeah I would agree with you Tex on plainview just from what it looks like in the pics, is the tip reworked? I like the rootbeer color nice find!

    The tip is worked into a blunt. I love the white patina that forms on rootbeer flint.

    Those pics are a little rough to make out. It might be time for a better camera.

    Plainview or maybe Golondrina; depends on what those auricles originally looked like.

    Old yes. Plainview no way! While the photos are not great there is enough there to show me that the edge grinding does not extend beyond the short stem and the flaking is un-patterned. The best that can be said about this point is unknown parallel sided lanceolate. Sorry I know your wanting it to be Plainview or at least typed out but not every point, especialy this fragmentary, can be placed into a neat category. I'm not even sure it is Paleo. Maybe Early Archaic?
