Dorsal & ventral views of a small brown chert point with tapering stem & narrow blade that flares out to form irregular shoulders.

Probable late Gary variety Kenedy or Range ca. AD 400-900 from Beauregard Parish, Louisiana. Cortex in 2 locations indicate it was knapped from a small pebble. I wonder if the #flintknapper gave up? #archaeology
