RETURN TO PAGE 3

   This Clovis point was found approximately 100

feet from the McKinnisClovis cache. It is the only

other Clovis artifact that was reported from this site.

It has multiple basal thinning flakes, one very large

percussion flake removal and a portion of one edge
has a burin flake removal. One of the edges also has

particularly well done pressure flaking that is actually

similar to some Folsom point edges. This point is made

of Burlington chert and it measures 2 1/4 inches (5.6 cm)

long, 1 1/4 inches (3.2 cm) wide and 1/4 of an inch (6 mm)

thick.

Clovis point found on the McKinnis cache site.
