The Alberta below was found in Tulsa Co. by Bill Shanks.
Mr. Shanks was born on the river bank, and still owns
the house he was born in. I believe the Alberta is now in
the collection of Dr. Jim Cox. The cork board is what Bill
Shanks had it glued to.

Tammy holds a first stage Folsom
found in Kay Co. Oklahoma. It was
found by young Steve Vaughn Jr.
while fishing below Kaw Dam. For
years Archaeologists and collectors
had typed this as a Clovis. After Greg
papered it as Folsom our
understanding of the type grew.

| This point is featured in the Folsom Edition of Prehistoric American Magazine. It was typed as a Clovis for the first year or two after it's discovery by Steve Vaughn Jr. It was Greg Perino, with his long exposure to Clovis and Folsom material from the Arkansas River in E. Oklahoma, who pointed out what is now obvious. It's a Folsom. |
Mineral springs knives,
such as the one pictured to
the left, precede the
Gahagan Knife in time.They
are often mis-typed as
Paleo or Dalton age pieces.
They have been reliably
dated to the early Caddo
Period. Very collectible and
valuable in their own right!
