Lot #174 (Sale Order 177 of 366)

Sale Highlight! Large 3 13/16" Paleo Cougar Mountain made from Jasper with excellent flaking. This is a beautiful example of a very rare Great Basin – Columbia River Plateau area point.

In obsidian hydration testing conducted by Great Basin Associates and performed by Sonoma State University, a majority of the Haskett – Cougar Mountain points predated Clovis examples from the same areas and the Great Basin. The dates for Cougar Mountain – Haskett range from 12,100-10,500 BP. This point was found on the Ray Simmons field in 1960 near Pasco Washington by Shirley Twehus. Shirley was a member of the mid Columbia Archaeological Society. The Ben Stermer COA which accompanies this point states "this is a fine example of this type, exhibiting excellent workmanship". This is a rare opportunity to own an exceptional Paleo point from the Columbia River. Ex. Richard Lang, Gordon Erspamer collections. Stermer and Jackson COA's.
