Item BR153
This beautiful lithic reproduction of a corner notched
arrow point with elegant parallel flaking was made by
Virgil
Tonn, a rancher from Georgetown, just north of
Austin, Texas. The material is Royal Mexican Green Flint.
Virgil achieves the beautiful flake patterns by grinding
down a blank to a perfect configuration and then he flakes
it. This grinding technique was perfected by the ancient
Egyptians, but not by Native Americans. Virgil positioned
the dark spot in the material to the central position. The
dark spot can only be seen from one side. Length = 55 mm ;
Weight = 6.1 gm
