- Item: FA178
- Description: Beautiful Serrated Archaic Stemmed - Here is a beautiful piece with fine serrations and a needle tip that is a bit problematic as far as typology. It is beveled on all 4 sides and serrated along both edges. The sides of the stem (or notches) are ground and the base has been lightly ground. It has a short stem that expands right at the base. I am not sure whether to call it a Benton, some odd Harpeth River, or short stemmed Little Bear Creek? I lean more towards a Benton, but I will let you decide or suggest to me. The piece was found in Russell County, Kentucky. From our personal collection.
