ID Project (the orange page)

It finally snowed. Snowed down to the valley floor. Red day for the kids and dad. Here is part of my new project. I have 3 more colored pages to add.
I would like add some photos to the typology section but would like to add them to the correct type. So if you guys don't mind helping....here is the orange page.



Here is what I came up with.
1. Desert Side Notch
2. DSN
3. Northern Side Notch
4. ? (best I can see, this was made with one wing) (rscn??)
5. Rose Spring Corner Notch
6. R S C N
7. R S C N
8. R S C N
Please feel free to correct my errors. Questions/comments. I have a blue, green and pink page to add at anytime. Like I said....it snowed.

I'd say your correct on 1-4 and I would call the rest Elko Corner Notched. #4 has probably just been re-sharpened more on the one side which removed more of the wing.

#3 may be a salvage job. I can't tell for sure but it looks like it may of been originally a corner notched point. If so after the stem broke off they added the side notches to salvage it.

Thanks Floyd for that.

Homestyle thank you too... I'm surprised with the Elkos. I thought they would have more
body and not as slim.

I tend to be more of a lumper than a splitter and I'm certainly no authority when it comes to typology. Someone may have a different view. I'm sure there are types from California I'm not familiar with too.
