points from Moundville AL, and Etowah GA
swamp monkey:
Does anyone know what the points from Etowah Georgia and Moundville Alabama looked like? Both are mound building sites from the Mississippian period. Spiro and Cahokia points I have found and although similar they have differences. So I am interested in other variances. I have done some image searches but to no avail. Any input will be welcome.

I went to Etowah and was real disappointed in the little museum with two piles of dirt with mowed grass. Sorry, no points that I saw.
swamp monkey:
Here are a few images of Cahokia and Spiro points. They are very similar to one another. They also have variety with in the sites. However, there are some differences too. Note the area below the notch. I would like to have a better understanding of the breadth of variations across the mound building Deep South.
