These three Fresno arrow points were recovered from the surface of a Smoky Hill aspect village and donated to the Kansas Historical Society in 2017. Archeologists identify Fresno arrow points as being unnotched with a triangular shape. Though small and thin, they would have been extremely effective on the hunt. The site, in Saline County, was occupied during the Middle Ceramic period.
