Re: Back to the Barber Hole This Weekend!

Can someone identify for me those 7 counties?

Re: Back to the Barber Hole This Weekend!

Matt
Can someone identify for me those 7 counties?


Hopefully Bob's on his way to his dig site, I'll give it a try:

From Dr Hesters book, Stone artifacts of Texas;

primarily;
1..GILLESPIE
2..BEXAR
3.WILLIAMSON

By seperate Email, Tehuacana reports a find right on the line of,

4..FRIO / LASALLE

Bo's find ( at Bob's dig )dead on the intersection of 3 counties.

5..EDWARDS / REAL / UVALDE

Bob would have to anotate what is on his list...
While looking into this, if you plot the finds on a map, there is a lot of counties in between those listed above.
In Dr H's reference to 3 counties, the important word is " primarily". . . . Academic typing, location and dating is ONLY based on very solid excavations with supporting insitu confirmations such as an undisturbed camp or burial.

Re: Back to the Barber Hole This Weekend!

The Barber I found was on a creek rich in artifacts, all surface finds. The dates ranged the gammit of time, from Ango's to Perdiz. Highest percentage of Clear Forks in my collection of over 200 and most of the Guadalupes were found along that creek. The only Andice (broken-impact fractured) that I ever found in So.Tx was also on that creek.

Re: Back to the Barber Hole This Weekend!

Thanks for the input on the county distribution. I have found Barbers digging in Coryell and McClennan counties, and was curious about their documented range.
