- Lot Description
Native American, Midwestern United States, Ohio, Early Archaic through Woodland period, ca. 8000 BCE to 1700 CE (10,000 to 300 BP). A collection of 6 projectile points, 1 celt, and 1 hammerstone, all hand-knapped from stones. The points included are a Broad Blade point made from a pink chert, a LeCroy bifurcated point from a tan chert, a MacCorkle bifurcated point from a flint, an Intrusive Mound side notched point, a Big Sandy chert point, and a Wade type point from a gray chert. The celt is a miniature votive form, using a rare black speckled gneiss and this celt has been in some respected, old collections, including that of Agustus Wherle. The grooved hammerstone is likely from Late Woodland or Intrusive Mound cultures and is made from a river cobble. This stone object might be much older than presumed, and, if so, it might have been used as a hammer, a "skull cracker" precursor, used in later times, or even a "tie-on" atlatl weight, if not a supposed form which it closely resembles. Size of hammerstone: 4" L x 1.75" W (10.2 cm x 4.4 cm)
Provenance: ex-private Saint Petersburg, Florida, USA collection; ex-private T. Beutell collection
