Thumbs up Lufkin Knife
A Very Rare Type ,,,Very Rare Knife Form.
Purchased with a group of E. Texas artifacts> 3 7/8". Late Archaic- Mississippian
Lufkin
Note: The Random Flake removals to a Medial Ridge.The other side having random flake removals but forming a flatter face.Sam Williams Named this type in 08' Named after the city of Lufkin Tx. in E. Texas.
I am so happy to have this piece.The rarity alone is something special,but The reworked blade is stellar. It would have been cool to see it complete////c

Thanks gpblood
Surface Find
My Best Guess would be Some Creek cobble, but this is out of my area and I am not that good on Flint Types.Any E Texas Folk recognize The Material.///c
