Stone tools from the North American Lower Great Lakes region, ca. 11,000 B.P. The tool on the left is a projectile tip from the Paleo Crossing Site in Northeast Ohio. The black outlines highlight impact damage at the tip, as well as the basal “flute,” or groove, that is characteristic of this type of tool. The tool on the right is an unfinished, and broken, knife from the Arc Site in Western New York. The white outlines highlight “overshot” flake scars, a special technique for shaping a stone tool by removing stone flakes that expand across the entire face of the blade.
