Well Made Notched~ Allendale Point

Length: 2"

Grade: 9

Description: Allendale points date to between 4800 BP to 5500 BP and are a local varient of the Middle Archaic Benton Cluster. They are found primarily in east Georgia and western South Carolina. There are a notched varity and then there are the stemmed variety. The Notched one likr you see here is the older variety. This is a very fine example of this type with great colors. Made of heat treated Brier Creek Chert. I went for years trying to buy some of these types, but I could never convince anyone to let go of any. Fortunately that dam has broke, and I now have a number of fine examples.

Provenance: Found on private property with permission in Burke Co. Georgia.
