The Kentucky Early Archaic Period: Flintknapping a Kirk Point

Follow
Pathways of the Past

We continue our journey through Kentucky's archaeological timeline with the Early Archaic period. It was during this time, starting ~10,000 years ago, that Kentucky's environment and ecology had transitioned from Pleistocene conditions to those like today. During this period, archaeologists see evidence for changes in stone tool technology, food procurement strategies, and more. The Kirk archaeological horizon is one manifestation of Early Archaic material culture, and in this video I flintknap a Kirk point as I discuss the Early Archaic period in Kentucky.
