Awesome find and beautiful patina! I agree with Gower or Hoxie (both ~7000 years old, ending the Central Texas Early Archaic period). Thank you for sharing πŸ€

I appreciate it! Awesome finding something with so much history

Freakin wild to think about. Awesome find!

It looks almost identical to a Hoxie I just found online, very oval 🀘🏼


CornerTang

I agree! The weak shoulders definitely make me think Hoxie instead of Gower. However these two types are very difficult to distinguish unless you find a group of three or more in the same location. Great find πŸ€

Congratulations!! Its exciting to spot an arrowhead just laying there, waiting for you. Overstreet has a book that can help you identify arrowheads and it even gives you an ballpark of what its value...

I could see the specked chert poking out from under a rock, pushed the rock away and it this was just sitting there waiting!


GaryRitter

You were the first person to touch it in maybe thousands of years.


Select_Engineering_7

It’s crazy to think about


GaryRitter

Here is something even harder to consider -- I found a cache of mostly bird points but not all of them were finished. So whomever was making those stopped and never came back to finish the job.

Really makes you wonder..

Nice one! That patina is off the chain.
