Triangular arrowpoints like this were used my Mississippian people in Kentucky from 1,000 to about 1,700 CE. Small, easy, and quick to produce, these were useful for both hunting and warfare. I made this particular replica from Ste. Genevieve chert. #flintknapping #archaeology

I made this Fort Ancient point out of a piece of Ste. Genevieve chert. Arrowpoints like this were made in Kentucky from 1000-1750 CE. This particular variation would have been made by Fort Ancient people during the later part of that date range. #flintknapping #archaeology
