This is an interesting Obsidian point. Found in the late 60s. Extreme North western Nevada. Point is completely worked on both sides. It’s one of those that’s hard to nail down as it has attributes of several types. Looks Triple T’ to Me or maybe a Humboldt variant. Kinda has a little Paleo thing going on, but I think the knapper took advantage of the slight concavity of the material on the reverse side.

That's a sweet point.
So much to like about it.
I like the curve to it. It's very nicely made. Concave base.
There's a little peak in middle that's cute as can be.
General vibe is top shelf artifact.
Thanks for showing it.California

Tomf. Thanks appreciate it . It’s quite an unusual and interesting point. It’s the only Humboldt Triple T’ Variant in my collection. Sometime when I get chance. Think I’ll pull a bunch of the Humboldt Variants and do a Pic post
