Quartz concave base point - Massapoag

Went with Barb to Ward's Berry Farm, an Audubon Society property in Sharon, and found a fine quartz point.

I did not see much and was going to give up on the place, when I saw this little quartz tip sticking out from the side of a rut. Now I know this place, with a rather vast array of fields, is a place worth spending quite a lot more time.

Update: Except, maybe not. I spent maybe more than 3 hours there a few days later and saw almost nary a flake of quartz. It is possible this was an isolated arrowhead? The water weathering on front and back are peculiar, since the edges are still sharp.
