THE SPATIOTEMPORAL DISTRIBUTION AND CHARACTERISTICS OF FOLSOM PROJECTILE POINTS IN TEXAS Academic Article

abstract

• Over three hundred Folsom points have been recovered from eighty-six localities in Texas. Statistical analysis of the distribution of Folsom points and the localities from which they came shows that the documented patterning reflects the differential intensity of archaeological investigations across the state and does not as yet reflect regional Folsom settlement patterns. Acceptable radiocarbon ages from Texas Folsom sites fall between 11,000 and 10,000 B.P. Metric attributes of Texas Folsom points compare favorably with the dimensions of Folsom points found in nearby states.
