CROSSHATCHING ON BONE POINT
SHERIDEN CAVE SITE
HENDRICKS COLLECTION

   This picture shows a magnified view of the tapered base of one of the bone spear points from Sheriden Cave. The "cross hatching" engraved area is where it was attached to a spear. This "roughening" probably helped attach it more firmly in the haft with the use of tree resin or other adhesive substances.
