Measuring Artifact Piece

At this years Flint Ridge knapin I had the pleasure and honor of measuring an actual artifact piece owned by Tony Podkanowicz. The piece is called a Winged Dickson and it was found in 1958 in McLean Co., IL along the Mackinaw River. The point is very thin at .27 inches thick at the thickest point going down to .16 inches thick near the point. It is 3.2 inches wide, which gives it a W/T ratio of 11.85/1! I would like to thank Mr. Podkanowicz for allowing me to measure this fine artifact piece. Below is a picture of the piece.
