Description
Native American, Southern United States, Mississippian / Caddo, ca. 1100 to 1500 CE (900 to 500 BP). A great collection of 15 miniature hand-knapped stone projectile points made of chert and quartzite. A few different types are exemplified in this diverse group. Nine points are Garza types, identifiable by the narrow triangular points with a basal notch. The other six are Harrell points with triangular blades, lower notches creating two shoulders, and two ears that are also pointed. A petite notch is cut into the center of the base as well, giving the Harrell arrowheads a very distinct 3-pointed shape. The petite size of each projectile point is quite impressive. It would have taken immense patience and a gentle hand to knap the ears and blades without shattering the stone. Size of largest point: 1.03" L x 0.6" W (2.6 cm x 1.5 cm); case: 6.25" L x 5.25" W x 0.75" H (15.9 cm x 13.3 cm x 1.9 cm)
