possible mclennan county plainview !

this came out of mclennan county outside of waco. it has really nice paleo flaking, three flutes, and you can tell it was later picked up and resharpened by another indian. you can see resharpening on the tip and the triple flutes and more resharpening on the reverse side

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

and here is some more pics of the birthday point my dad found. the TP brings out the serrations

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

I see you are a McLennan County digger. I will reask a question which I posed a few years ago whether anyone has information on the camp site located west of Bruceville/Eddy on what is now part of the Mackey Ranch. Did a lot of digging there in the 70's. It was large in size with substantial areas yet to be explored.

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

Diggler that B-day point is sick nice patina too!

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

No expert here but I'd guess anybody with access to the Mackey Ranch would find some fine stuff. Parts of the ranch have been developed for housing and lots of earth has been moved and disturbed.

Diggler, Wacoan here. Howdy!

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

BTW, like the Ultra can...great beer! Speaking of, if you take me diggin some time, I can provide plenty of Ultras. Just Sayin!

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

Thanks ya guys I'm working on having a new site here in Waco I can dig before they build a house on it. Sure Tony u can tag along some time

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

Hey dirk is that the place you found the bone im dying to check it out on person

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

That land I found the bone is for sale snoop but they are askin to much

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

If that top point was mine it would definitley go in the paleo case. very nice...

I remember Dad's find ...a Very happy birthday indeed What are you calling it ? Those "barbs" are kinda unique.

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

What's the huge 2nd point? Look's like an unusual one to me & is it from W. Texas?

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

Nice flint Diggler

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

I'm not sure what that point is for sure, i keep looking in the books but not positive on a ID. It was found deep

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

does it show any basil grinding.

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

I haven't seen it since it was found that day but the serrations made it really sharp

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

Diggler
I'm not sure what that point is for sure,


Well if it's not easily found in any of the reference books, it could not have been made that way in any quantity. Might be just a single but very deliberatly done resharpening. There's one single Hoxie in the money book with a hint of barbs.
The base and overall features are not unusual..
If it was mine, I think I would throw it in the Uvalde bucket

Re: possible mclennan county plainview !

i wonder could that possibly be a hardin point? it would be cool if you could get that point papered, or at least looked at by a true expert.
