Extraordinary Artifacts
Artifact #142
Fashioned from Utah agate, this is a classic Clovis point in size,
flaking, and proportions. It is in such perfect condition that
experts suspect it may never have been used, bolstering the
hypothesis that such caches may have served a ritual purpose. Like
all but one of the Fenn artifacts, this point bears a residue of red
ocher, an iron-rich pigment that Stone Age cultures often used in
ceremonies.
