"EARLY TRIANGULAR"
This broken base is one of two points reported to
have been discovered below a Clovis level in area B of the Cactus
Hill site. This point is
thin and relatively flat in cross-section. It also has a
concave base and rounded shoulders. It's very similar to either an unnotched Hardaway
or a Hardaway preform. This point was found near a Hardaway use area
feature but the two find areas did not overlap. McAvoy writes that
"The use areas of the two traditions do not overlap, but they may be
separated by no more than 15 feet in one and possibly two cases."
This point measures 1 3/8 inches (3.5 cm) long.
