Description

This is a medium to large (1.5 to 4 inches) triangular corner notched point with a flattened to elliptical cross section. The blade is primarily excurvate, but may vary to straight or recurvate. The blade is sometimes serrated, which may vary from fine to deep serrations, and may be beveled. The shoulders are strongly barbed, however the barbed may become slightly weaker in examples with heavily re-worked blades. The stem is expanding. The base may vary from straight to concave, but infrequently are convex. Basal grinding is rarely seen on this type of point. This point has a random flaking pattern.
