Name/Title

Point, Projectile

Description

Projectile Point - Trimble Side Notched; this is a small side-notched point with triangular blade. This type of point is closely related to the Merom Expanding Stem points but based on the notch placement of this example I feel it is a Trimble rather than Merom. Color - Gray. Trimble Points are diagnostic of the Riverton culture of the Late Archaic Period. Point Found in Collection on a board with a note saying that it was found in Shelby County and donated by M/M Harry C. Morrison. References: Projectile Points and Their Chronology" Noel D.
