Many of the points for arrows, harpoons, and knives may have been 
used in warfare as well as for hunting, and some of them in various indus- 
tries. The stone celts — especially the notched celt — hammerstones, and 
three notched hammers, may have been used as axes or as club heads in 
hunting or warfare; no grooved club heads or grooved axes were found. 
Some of the objects considered as awls, on page 64, may have served as 
daggers or even as spear points. The large piece of a whale rib (Plate VII, 
figure 13) may have been used as a club in hunting or in war. 
Chipped Stone Points 
Points chipped out of metargillite, quartz, quartzite, and chalcedony 
were used for arrows and knives employed in hunting. One hundred and 
ninety specimens were found. One hundred and twenty-two were of 
metargillite, four of quartz, eight of quartzite, three of chalcedony, and 
fifty-three of unidentified stone. The various styles of chipped points and 
the range of sizes are shown on Plate III, figure 15, and Plate IV, figures 
1-20. They vary in size from the one illustrated on Plate IV, figure 20, 
which is 1^ inches long, to the one illustrated on Plate III, figure 15, 
which is 6^ inches long. 
Three of the specimens chipped from metargillite are long, leaf-shaped 
points (Plate III, figures 10, 15); twelve are short, leaf-shaped points 
(Plate III, figure 9, and Plate IV, figure 6); six are coarse, triangular points; 
five are heavy, triangular to leaf-shaped points (Plate IV, figures 1 and 2); 
six are fine, triangular points (Plate IV, figures 3-5) ; ten are crude, small, 
triangular to leaf-shaped points; four are tanged, lozenge-shaped points 
(Plate IV, figures 10, 11); five are tanged points (Plate IV, figures 8, 9); 
fifteen are notched points (Plate IV, figures 14-20); and one is a trapezoidal 
chipped object, possibly used as a knife (Plate XVI, figure 7). 
Twenty-seven are tips broken from points. There are five points from 
which both tips and bases are missing. Twenty-one are the butts broken 
from points, and two are chips of chipped points. 
It will be noted that about forty specimens are leaf-shaped or triangular 
and about thirty are tanged or notched; also that about twenty specimens 
are of bases and thirty of tips, which suggests that one out of every three 
points that had their tips broken off and lost was re-tipped. 
One of the four specimens made of quartz is a tanged point chipped 
out of clear white quartz (Plate IV, figure 12), two are barbed points from 
heap A, and one is a notched point. 
Of the eight specimens made of quartzite: one is a leaf-shaped point; 
one a triangular, leaf-shaped point; one a tanged point of pink quartzite 
(Plate IV, figure 13); one a specimen with the point shorter than the tang 
(Plate IV, figure 7); one a notched point of grey quartzite; one the butt 
broken from a notched and barbed point of grey quartzite; one a barbed 
point with tip lacking, chipped from maroon quartzite; and one a tip of a 
point of maroon quartzite. 
Of the three specimens made of chalcedony, one is a tanged point 
chipped out of white and pink chalcedony, one is a barbed point of mottled 
white and pink chalcedony, and the third is the tip of a small point. 
The smaller points were probably used chiefly as heads for arrows. 
Some may have been used as harpoon tips and a few as knives. The large
