Small clovis-like point from Concord
I never showed this one:
Found at the wastewater facility cornfield - it was snowy and only a narrow strip of mud was melted out along the top of each corn row. I bent down to investigate what turned out to be a goose poopy, and while my head was close to ground I spotted this little point. I should not have found it otherwise.

Peter -
Definitely not a Clovis (and some folks are now claiming that there is no Clovis in the Northeast; what we have are Clovis contemporaries like Barnes and Gainey). This one appears to be a Late Paleo point like a Plainview.
I agree it is not a Clovis.
there are many clovis in northeast. get overstreet guide. awesome thread!
arrowheads.com has Rhode Island clovis thread. The new england types are not well documented for sure
BTW that's porphorytic rhylolite usually reserved for important pieces
not a clovis point ost likely but of same time period. Maybe a similar bifurcate point
*most likely, lol
Check Mackorkle bifurcate and similar points
