Bifaces from Riley County
Date: Unknown
These two large bifaces were both recovered from Riley County. The largest biface was donated to the Kansas Historical Society in 1880 and is made from Florence chert. Its pink cast comes from being heat-treated, a process to improve the knapping qualities of a chert. The small biface, though thicker and not heat-treated, is also made of Florence chert. It was donated to the Kansas Historical Society in 1925 and carries a label which reads "Spearhead found on the (unreadable word) on College Hill Riley Co KS."

Bifaces from the Wullschleger Site, 14MH301
Date: 1-1800 CE
These bifaces were collected from the Wullschleger site in Marshall County and donated to the Kansas Historical Society in 1961. The bifaces, or cutting tools, were made of Permian chert that outcrops in Flint Hills of Kansas and Oklahoma. With additional work, they could have been made into other types of tools. The site was occupied periodically throughout the Early, Middle and Late Ceramic periods.

Chipped Stone Artifacts from the Garret Site, 14TO327
Date: 2000 BCE-1000 CE
This stemmed dart point and two bifaces were recovered during the 1997 Kansas Archeological Training Program field school at the Garret Site in Trego County. The artifacts are made of Smoky Hill silicified chalk, a good quality knapping material that is exposed in linear beds in northwestern Kansas and western Nebraska. The bifaces could have been used as a cutting tool or, with more work, turned into specific tools.

Dart Point from 14WO310
Date: 1000 BCE-500 CE
