Brewerton... Old Break(s)

Went out for about 3 hours and only found a Brewerton Side Notched made of Upper Mercer Chert with old breaks. Definately better than nothing.

Got me wondering if it was whacked out of the haft like Uniface mentioned in another post (even though this is a Terminal Archaic point):

I see this so much with Early Archaic cornernotches that I am very suspicious of what purport to be examples of them with both shoulders & feet intact.
