Wade Point

Wade Point

translucent quartz, 1.5 inches long

Late Archaic to Woodland Period 2500 to 500 BC

Found May 1, 1988 in plowed field, Anne Arundel County, Maryland.

 

This was the first point I found at a friend's farm after they plowed the field to plant corn. For many years I went back every spring after they plowed and never failed to find something. Now they have built a house over part of the land and let the rest of the field grow grass for hay so I can't collect there anymore.
