OK, joking aside, a mastodon is an extinct mammal that looked like an elephant. The point is, a mastodon bone has been found with a spear point embedded in it, and the spear point itself was made out of mastodon bone. You know, kinda like how your mother-in-law gets under your skin, only worse than that.

bldgblog.blogspot.com/2009/05/early-man-site.html They say this site may be even much older than the one above its very interesting reading and the man who worked on it has a long and storied history in archeology. Though no one believes the dates that he came up with. George

Thats a cool article and an awesome find but I dont think its gonna rock the archaeology world. There have been numerous mastodon and mammoth found in our rivers and I know of a camel found with bone projectile points associated with it. These bone pins havebeen around since first man. They were easy to make and serves mulit purposes. hair pins fish gigs and projectile points.
These pins/points here I found diving a few different sites and are made from the cannon leg bones of deer. I have found 1 made from ivory at a wet dig site.
Also pictured is a socketed antler point but its only approx 4000 bp.
