aven lee (sp)? points new link on first post

[Ryan_Gill_HuntPrimitive]

here are a couple aven lee (sp*) points i made today. modeled after a common style of my area. I made them for a landowner friend of mine that is gracious enough to allow me to hunt and look for arrowheads on his farm. he seems to have a wealth of knowledge of the local aboriginals and a great interest in flintknapping.

Nice points Ryan! I'm not familiar with aven lee (as in, never heard of em ) but those turned out nice!!

[Ryan_Gill_HuntPrimitive]

thanks. the one on the left is actually done pretty nicely, the one on the right isn't quite as uniform. you can see the smooth section in the middle. and i kept breaking the ears off it/.....just didnt know when to say "when".

Those have a great form.  What's the name's origin - is aven lee where they were found?

[Ryan_Gill_HuntPrimitive]

thanks again.
yeah roger is dacite. probably the easiest stone for me to work....but man i wish they made it in another color.....same ol black every time

i think the name was either originated by the person he found them here...i guess cause i havent seen anyplace named aven lee yet....although  with all the tiny towns and such its hard to say.   i told him it looked like a hardin point to me (more the one on the right than the one on the left)   too many names for these things
