Orient Fishtail
Orient Fishtail points are usually associated with late Terminal Archaic
occupations in southern New England (ca. 3400-2700 Years BP). Orient
points were manufactured from a variety of local and non-local lithic
materials. Considered part of the Susquehanna Tradition (Snow 1980;
McBride 1984).
