Comprising only around 3 to 4% of all projectile points found, Paleo-Indian artifacts
are some of the most sought after by collectors everywhere. They often exhibit excellent
workmanship and many are made from high quality materials. The time frame for the Paleo period
in Texas was approximately 11,500 to 8,000 years ago. Finding one of these on a hunt
usually calls for a celebration.
