Observations on the Patination Process and the Context of Antiquity: A Fluted Projectile Point from Belize, Central America

Abstract

The first occurrence of a fluted point from the Maya lowlands of Belize is documented in this paper. This heavily patinated artifact was found at Ladyville #1, a surface site near Belize City. It is of interest that similarly patinated chert tools from various periods of Maya culture were also found at the site and the paper discusses the nature of the patination process in the region.
