Guadalupe Serrated
Provisional TypeCluster: Livermore Stemmed Cluster
Description of Physical Characteristics and Flaking Pattern:
This is a medium triangular expanding stem with an elliptical cross section. The blade may vary from straight to incurvate, flaring at the shoulders edge. The blade is commonly deeply serrated. Many examples have multiple notches on one or both blades on the shoulders edge. The shoulders are generally barbed, but may range to horizontal. The stem is expanding and most commonly had a narrow neck. The base is convex giving many of these points a bulbous appearance of the stem. This point has a random flaking pattern.
