Extract

A point with oblique parallel flaking was found in an eroded field on high ground, 2½ miles north of the Missouri River near Kansas City, Mo. Chert flakes scattered over the site indicate occupation over several acres but no other artifacts from the site are now available for study. The location and the eroded condition of this site are similar to those of the Nebo Hill Complex (J. M. Shippee, Nebo Hill, A Lithic Complex In Western Missouri, American Antiquity, Vol. 14, No. 1, pp. 29-32, 1948), but nothing else links them except the presence of the light colored chert flakes.
