About this product

Product Information

The Native American tribes of what is now the southeastern United States left intriguing relics of their ancient cultural life. Arrowheads, spear points, stone tools, and other artifacts are found in newly plowed fields, on hillsides after a fresh rain, or in washed-out creek beds. These are tangible clues to the anthropology of the Paleo-Indians, and the highly developed Mississippian peoples. This indispensable guide to identifying and understanding such finds is for conscientious amateur archeologists who make their discoveries in surface terrain. Many are eager to understand the culture that produced the artifact, what kind of people created it, how it was made, how old it is, and what its purpose was. Here is a handbook that seeks identification through the clues of cultural history. In discussing materials used, the process of manufacture, and the relationship between the artifacts and the environments, it reveals ancient discoveries to be not merely interesting trinkets but by-products from the once vital societies in areas that are now Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, the Carolinas, as well as in southeastern Texas, southern Missouri, southern Illinois, and southern Indiana. The text is documented by more than a hundred drawings in the actual size of the artifacts, as well as by a glossary of archeological terms and a helpful list of state and regional archeological societies.

  • Arrowheads & Spear Points: Guide to Underst Cult Artif

    I love the described history of stone tool making in the Americas, from first immigrants through the Mississippian Stage. I like the grouping by the author of similar type arrowheads into clusters. Many illustrations are fuzzily dotted, not crisp, but still helpful. I dislike there being no specifics whatever of geographic area, more precise age, stone/mineral types used, sizes or matching of any artifacts to any known tribes or cultures making them. I decided to buy it to gain more and, hopefully, specific information on arrowheads & spear points in the US Southeast. The book has mostly general information on points and nothing particular about US Southeast points at all.
