Thebes on the Ohio River

[Crick Chub]

Found this “e” notched Thebes in Mason Co. West Virginia along the Ohio Rive this afternoon. I am pretty sure that it is an Early Archaic Thebes. My best artifact find to date.

Congratulations , outstanding !

That's an absolutely stellar example. Ohio Thebes/E-Notch/Archaic Bevel are usually worked down to nothing before being discarded, rare to see one with relatively low mileage.

Congrats! How big is it?

[Crick Chub]

It measured 2 3/4 x 1 1/4 inches

Nice example of the point type

Beautiful old point. Rates super high on my Dandy Scale. The river gave up a treasure for you.

Most excellent find,

Very nice, it's amazing how natural light and a picture taken inside with artificial light can make a artifact look.

[Crick Chub]

I really don’t like the way the point photographed inside. Too dingy looking. Looks a whole lot better on the river bank.

That's one super find, congrats. 50+ yrs I have never found an E notch. WOW for sure

When point of the month for July comes up please enter that gem. Will be a contender.

Something you don't find everyday, congrats.

Nice! Mason County isn't too far from here, you're in the WSAZ viewing area. A lot of good points come from there, none that I've found though, lol!

Excellent find Crick Chub. Don't find many E-notch points, congrats!

A closer look looks like the small piece of missing barb looks like an impact fracture, it sure left the sign of one.
