snedeker:
Here is a photo showing some projectile points.  In the top row, left most one is a drill made on a Plano point (Late Paleo), one to its right is a scraper made out of a used up dalton point of Late Paleo.  One to its right is an Early Archaic point from 8,000-7,000 BC, right most is late paleo (8,500-8,000 BC) similar to Greenbrier type.  Most of the others we thing are Early Archaic, either Kirk-Palmer like or unknown stemmed.  On at bottom right is gray chert Late Archaic point made into hafted scraper

snedeker:
They're about 42 and 48 mm long, 32 mm wide, 7 mm thick.  Look like Stanly (Middle Archaic) or Savannah River (Middle to late Archaic) but not quite right.  Those types are usually expediently flaked  on crud stone but these are finel flaked on primo pieces.
