Your first impression is that the flint is an Ohio material, but it's a glossy fossil chert out of southern Illinois--Kincaid Chert. The Adena measures 2&7/8" by 1&3/8" across the barbs--would have been another 1/16" wider except for an ancient nick on the barb itself. Use (in Woodland era) of the tip as a scraping feature reduced the overall length an eighth inch. As wide as the Adena is, it'd be easy to see the 'stage one length' as even longer--that's a lot of blade (wide) for the present length. The piece was a garden patch find from Macon County, Illinois--the guy had quite an Adena site, but wasn't really a collector; he simply picked up what tilling washed to the surface of his garden (per his daughter). Authentic, period. Shipping is $6.00, checks or M.O.s are welcomed. Sorry, I do not use paypal--Roy A.
