Vaughn Point

This triangular point features a stout, medium-sized profile with an elliptical cross-sectional shape. Its shoulders are subtly defined and slope upward at a pronounced angle. The stem, characterized by its brevity and breadth, exhibits straight margins and rounded corners at the base, which can vary from a straight to a slightly convex edge. The flaking pattern on this point is irregular and random, often resulting in a crudely finished appearance, indicative of expedient manufacture.
