Notes

Dauphin County, Pennsylvania is noted as the place of origin of this stone in the AMNH archive manuscript. Ohio, however, was written on the stone when labeled at the AMNH. This error may have occurred since the 5 previous and proceeding stones were from Ohio. Note 2/2: This bannerstone is broken at the spine either because the stone is weakest at the thin surface of the spine or because it was intentionally broken at the spine as is common with bannerstones. In addition, the broken edge of the spine has been polished and there are three triangular notches carved into the thin edge of the remaining wing that indicate some kind of archaic period reuse.

6000-1000 BCE
