About the Montell

Montell is a corner-notched dart point of the Middle to Late Archaic, at home on the Edwards Plateau and across central and south-central Texas. Deep notches cut in from the corners leave strong barbs and an expanding stem, and the split base is the detail this lesson lingers on.
