  • what would you call this Striped flint?

    I found this little impact broke side notch the other day. It looks like and arrow projectile point you would find out west at a buffalo jump, but I found it in central Kentucky. I was wondering if you could help me give it a name.

              That's a first for me, I've saw a couple similar pieces of stone in the creek, but never an artifact. Kentucky was used as a shared (sometimes not shared) hunting ground for surrounding NA habitations from all sides. So it's quite possible it was imported. Occasionally you apt to find that lithic with little or no good explanation for where it's from or how it could have got there. Very beautiful though! Thanks for showing it!
