These are two examples of artifacts on Collingwood chert. Collingwood chert is sometimes referred to as Fossil Hill chert.
The artifact on the right is a Unifacial Trianguloid End-Scraper.; Early Paleoindian. The scraper may have been hafted, likely used in hide-working.
It is 2.3 cm in length, 2.2 cm in width, and is 8 mm thick, and was also found in the St. Thomas, Ontario area.

Hello I'm a new member very nice piece! Have you checked out the article by Ashley M. Smallwood and Albert C. Goodyear " Reworked Clovis Biface Distal Fragments from the Topper Site, 38AL23: Implications for Clovis Technological Organization in the Central Savannah River Region". You will find it on the University of South Carolina Scholar Commons or just google rebased Clovis point that is how I found it. They have done some ground breaking work on Clovis technology down there. I am studying similar point I acquired. Sorry for the blank profile as I am still working on it.Comment

Planoman,
I was not aware of that article. Thanks for the heads up. I am going to read it now.
Regards,

Very interesting post David.
Many reworked Clovis points can still be identified but I’m sure there are a number of Clovis points out there that are next to impossible to make a positive ID due to extensive reworking of the base. This subject reminds me of a rebased Clovis I found here in the central Great Plains.Last edited by 11KBP; 09-13-2017, 10:38 PM.Comment
