PRIVATE COLLECTION
RETURN TO PAGE 1

   This early stage Dalton fluted preform was found in a
cultivated field in St. Clair County, Illinois. Other Dalton
points were also surface collected on this site. This is a
typical example of an early stage Dalton fluted preform
that failed during the fluting process. The channel flake
plunged downward breaking the preform in half.
    This preform measures 1 1/8 inches (2.8 cm) long, 1 1/2
inches (3.8 cm) wide and 5/16 of an inch (8 mm) thick.

Early stage Dalton fluted preform, with fluting break.
