Re: 7-20 & 21 AT THE NACHO FACTORY

Looks like had everybody good time and some real nice finds! The BELL is some of that awesome!

The last find is very interesting, I have found several of those here in Milam co. Those that I have found are not as well msde as the Nueces river valley type. It is assumed they were made by the Azebackward tribe, they were a small band that were pretty much loners and did not associate with the other bands or tribes. It is also believed that this point type could have been a proto-type for the more modern Blunt point!

Curious if there are any others out there and might be able to determine their range of inhabitance!
