obsidian point from California

[kurts]

Here is a surface find probably left from hunting, found in a coastal foothill area where once the Costonoan/Ohlone people had their home. (I don't dig or otherwise disturb Indian sites). A interesting note about this point is that obsidian is not local to our area; this material must have been traded with the tribes in the far north of our state--possibly as far as Mt. Lassen or Glass Mountain.

Here's a nice big pic to appreciate the detail! ;D
