Any thoughts on this base? I have a couple more similar. This one in particular has very pronounced basal thinning on both sides and light basal grinding. Another find from the mid to low strata of the MO rockshelter. Thanks!

Let's see them all togetherNW Georgia, -
Here’s all 3. All should be early to mid archaic at the latest. All basal thinned and serrated. White one is left hand beveled.Comment

Interesting, looks like they all had the same maker. Makes sense that you would be able to find a lot of bases in a shelter. Tips probably broke out in the field and the shaft was refitting back at camp. I don't think I've ever seen a base quite like it before.South CarolinaComment

Here i would think Savannah River but you probably don't have them there. I know some Kirk types look like that toNW Georgia,Comment

Yea, it is definitely an unusual form. I'll have to look again but there may be another one or two as well in the broke pile. Right now I'm between Hidden Valley and Searcy.Comment

Look like similar type from central Texas pedernales. I like the way they thin the base very similarComment

to me these show Kirk attributes. On left Kirk stemmed other two Kirk stemmed bifurcate . Nice finds I hope you find some whole ones to show us.TN formerly CT Visit our store http://stores.arrowheads.com/store.p...m-Trading-PostComment

They do look a little Kirky, like the ones I see pulled from TN all the time, but for some reason it just doesn't feel like that if that makes sense. I really hope I can pull a full one as well.Comment

That's just what you need , a complete one. I thought pedernales. I think the serrations are throwing it off base as a Kirk. But what do I know about Texas stuff, only what I see and read. KimKnowledge is about how and where to find more Knowledge. Snyder County Pa.Comment

Thanks Hoss, my mistake. Kirks here are very different. None that I've seen or found have a base like that. KimKnowledge is about how and where to find more Knowledge. Snyder County Pa.Comment
