Possible Savannah River Projectile Point Base

A jasper projectile point base, likely Savannah River-type, recovered during the 1943 excavation of a precontact period site along the Susquehanna River in Cecil County, Maryland by Richard Stearns and the Natural History Society of Maryland. The Savannah River point dates to the Late Archaic period ranging from 3900 to 3700 BP (2450-2050 BC). The Savannah River point has a large, triangular blade with a broad, square, straight stem.
