"EARLY TRIANGULAR"
This is one of two points that are
referred to in the site report as an early
triangular point. This point and the broken base of another point
were "recovered in situ below Clovis" (McAvoy, 1997). Both points
are thin and relatively flat in cross-section. They also have
concave bases that have been thinned by removing small flakes by
pressure flaking. This point has been heavily resharpened
into a pentagonal shape. It's possible that it may have been considered
worn out and discarded for another point. It measures 1 3/8 inches
(3.5 cm) long.
