well i went down and bought myself a copy of the "OVERSTREET IDENTIFICTION AND PRICE GUIDE TO INDIAN ARROWHEADS" 11th edition
this book is filled with lots of awesome full size pics,mostly black and white.but also alot of color pics too.
now i have been reading alot on points in my region,northern central.
now i do have some questions for all of you that know more than me about this stuff,which for the most part is all of you
.
in the descriptions of points they use terms such as "horizontal transverse flaking","collateral flaking", etc
i understand what "parallel oblique flaking", and "random flaking" mean.but unsure as to these other styles of flaking mean.
also i was looking for types that would be from minnesota,as this is where i am from.
but in the whole NC section,they only showed three that stated they were from mn.
am i to assume that all the types in the NC section may be found in mn,or is my state just artifact poor?
if the state is artifact poor,would this mean that those that are found would be worth a buck or three?
i know a couple of people that have found points in differant parts of central minnesota.they would be estatic if they were worth something.
thanks for any help you can give
peace,
tim
