Thanks a lot for this link. I do not find a lot of artifacts, but every now and then when I do, it will be nice to know what age it might be. The site sure is well put together.

Thanks. Being a bit of a data junkie, I love knowing where to find information.

Thanks for this! I've found quite a few points since I've started fossil hunting and metal detecting. Now I can finally answer my "I wonder how old these are?" question.

While this is a useful site, it is "liberal" in its use of age ranges. I've found quite a few that were out of line with the research on Texas sites...(in other words, don't stake your reputation on this data). :)

Interesting site Auspex, thanks! :thumbsu:
