ID:	466809 Do you think they were actually used for hunting or maybe made for their kids? The shafts would have had to be pretty small. We were always kind of tickled when finding them. Most of our artifacts have been put away in zip lock bags in storage but I take them out now and again and tried to find some of the smallest ones. Not sure if this is the smallest or not but they are some of the smaller ones.

      We got in the habit of flipping every chip over and sometimes you get a surprise.

          Yep, yep. Bird points called that for their delicacy and their beauty, not coz used to hunt birds. In fact, they would pass right thru little bird body. Being exquisite doesn’t make them any less efficient on big animals. All my reading emphasizes their deadliness in skilled hands. (Whatever I know learned from y’all and books).

            They look like they could have been broken drills that were reworked. They didn't waste anything that's for sure.
