- Lot Description
Native American, Southern United States, Boone County Missouri, Mississippi County Arkansas, Late Archaic to Late Woodlands, Adena and undefined, ca. 3000 to 1200 BP (1000 BCE to 800 CE). A fine collection of 9 stone tools that are hand-knapped to serve a variety of purposes. All are made from chert in hues of creamy white, gray, and beige. The largest is elongated with two slightly convex faces and a pointed tip, with an opposite wider end that could be used as a hand tool or hafted onto a handle. Several others have a similar shape, but are different sizes. Two are projectile points, with short necks for hafting, small fins, and serrated edges that come to pointed tips. One is circular with a flat side and slightly convex side, perhaps a scraper, and the others are fragments of large tools, but exhibit pointed tips and polished smooth surfaces. A great variety of forms that may have been for hunting, scraping, digging, or other purposes! Size of largest: 6.5" L x 2" W (16.5 cm x 5.1 cm); smallest: 2" L x .75" W (5.1 cm x 1.9 cm)
Provenance: private Kansas City, Missouri, USA collection, ex-John Townsend collection, formed in the 1970s and earlier
