| | The Art of Flintknapping involves the production of many types of stone tools above and beyond projectile points. Dr. "Arizona" Gleason, in her exploration of this ancient craft, has thus attempted to master the production of other usable tools. These tools are excellent for either educational display or actual use. Some of those which she has mastered the regular production of are available for purchase below and on the linked pages. These items are replications of actual artifacts for use in the classroom, at guest lectures or for museum exhibits. This allows for the most effective form of hands-on teaching without endangering actual priceless artifacts. Use our Special Request Order Form (PDF, 57KB) to ask for a quote from Dr. "Arizona" in terms of replicating a specific artifact not currently shown on the various TOOLS pages below. | |

 | FLAKED STONE TOOLS These items are replications of actual artifacts for use in the classroom, at guest lectures or for museum exhibits. Here they are specifically finely pressure flaked tools. Most of these tools are available in labeled shadow boxes. Several can be put to use themselves in their traditional manner or can be requested to be previously used for comparative analysis purposes. |

 | COMPOSITE STONE TOOLS These items are replications of actual complete artifacts for use in the classroom, at guest lectures or for museum exhibits. They are specifically tools that are constructed of multiple parts, especially multiple lithic blades. Some are simply hafted versions of stone tools available elsewhere on this website. In such a way, these tools are designed to be put to use in their traditional manner or, alternatively, can be requested to be previously used for comparative analysis purposes. |
