Everyone but Te stop here...NO spear points, NO long eared translucent anythings....
Te, here's some closer details of that gorgeous piece, top L, 2nd in...
Absolutely textbook classic chisel CLEAR FORK
Absolutely textbook perfectly flat 'flake' bottom
It's big enough to be seen from the beach while washing the dirt off ( of me that is ! )
You and I have spent MONTHS hacking over what the clearforks were actually used for....Well While getting out of the water I noticed some FISH around the rocks...
Could Clear Forks actually have been FISH SCALERS
I deceided to test the theorum ....if fish would not come near the scaler it would prove they knew what it was for...
still looking
They really kept their distance
The ClearFork scaler possibility did not get resolved either way...
BUT a very significant secondary efffect was realised...
Am I seeing some competition here? That's a real nice one Hal. Folks would think those are just crudely knocked out but most have some really good workmanship. That's a dandy find, just need a deep frame to put it in.
