Table of Contents: Page 1 - Page 2 This important reference to projectile points of California and the Great Basin is the latest in a series of regional guides that survey, describe, and categorize the projectile points and cutting tools used in prehistory by the earliest inhabitants of the North American continent. Written for archaeologists and amateur collectors alike, the book describes over 50 types of stone arrowhead and spear points according to period, culture, and region. With the knowledge of someone trained to fashion projectile points with techniques used by Native Americans, Justice describes how the points were made, used, and resharpened. His detailed drawings illustrate the way tools were shaped, what styles were peculiar to which regions, and how the various types can be best identified. There are hundreds of drawings, organized by type cluster and other identifying characteristics. The book also includes distribution maps and color plates that will further aid the researcher or collector in identifying specific periods, cultures, and projectile types.
