CLOVIS POINT
FENN CACHE
Forrest Fenn Collection
Obsidian Clovis from Fenn cache, scratches on base.

   Magnified view of the hafting area of a Clovis point made from Obsidian. The surface was roughened by scratching. Abrading the surface would have helped to secure the point more tightly in the haft. Obsidian was commonly used to make Clovis points in areas where it was available.
