Ohio man finds 15,000-year-old flint spear tip

By Associated Press

HEATH, Ohio: A spear point found in a central Ohio field by a farmer has been identified by archeologists as being used by hunters to kill mastodons about 15,000 years ago.

Forty-four-year-old Don Johnson of Heath found the Clovis point about four years ago while on a walk.

Brad Lepper, an archaeologist with the Ohio Historical Society, says the point is one of the only remaining types of evidence of the Clovis Paleo-Indians. The group, named for their weapons, used the points for about 500 years.

Experts say the point is made of Coshocton flint, a grade of stone used for weapons and tools.
