释义 |
DescriptionLevanna points are generally about 1 1/4 to 1 3/4 inches (30 to 45 mm) in length but may be as small as 7/8 inch (22 mm) to as large as 3 inches (76 mm). They are generally rather thin and triangular about as wide as they are long, and usually have a concave base. They are generally made from local flints, jasper, quartz and quartzite.[1] Age and cultural affiliationsThese points appeared in the American northeast around 700 AD and were very common from about 900 AD until around 1350 AD when it was replaced by the Madison projectile point. They are associated with the Owasco Indians and others, and their disappearance coincides roughly with the appearance of the Iroquois culture.[1] DistributionThese points are found in much of New England, south eastern Ontario, the Middle Atlantic area, as far west as Virginia and eastern Pennsylvania.[1] See also
