Found in either Spencer County or McLean County, Kentucky--those were the two counties that supplied most of this Doctor's collection. Either he had a great memory or he wasn't so concerned with recording provenance for his collection...or based on the size of the collection I sort of suspect it grew SO fast he was adding flint from his "usual sources" he fell behind on labeling his massive collection. The Paleo Clovis is 100% authentic, it's been labeled in MY collection since 2020, it's real. There is slight fluting on both faces, but being thin to begin with there isn't a pronounced flute ending in a hinge fracture as you'd see on an intact Clovis--length here is 1&1/16" by 1" with a max thickness of 1/4". Note that after the end broke the Paleo hunter notched one side to create a burin--a little needle-pointed preforator. Second thing to note is that the snapped end has work polish-the piece was used as a hafted scraper--hafted, used for working leather, I assume, due to the short length. Right at the auricles you'll detect lateral edge grinding (and basal grinding on the auricles as well), but the auriculate center is hardly ground. I'll make one more 'note' here: the material may well be Sonora Flint, not Hornstone--there is more hematite color (red) in the flint matrix than most hornstone. Shipping is $8.00, checks or M.O.s are welcomed. Sorry, I do not use paypal-type services--Roy A.
