Elfshot: More Photos of Knapped Stone Points

Stack them up like Shark's Teeth

This is my 935th blog post. That's not a particularly significant milestone, but it is a pretty big number. I've been blogging every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for the past six years and sometimes it is very hard to come up with a new way to talk about the same subjects that I've covered many times. Today, for example, I finished four dozen arrowheads and endblades for a jewellery order. I've photographed and written about similar piles of knapped stone on dozens of occasions. To make this post different, I tried to find some new ways of photographing the pieces. They are all made form Newfoundland chert and include corner-notched Little Passage or Beothuk arrowheads, side-notched Groswater Palaeoeskimo endblades, and concave based Dorset Palaeoeskimo endblades.
