“Handbook of Alabama Archaeology: Part I, Point Types” by James W. Cambron and David C. Hulse is a scientific publication written in the late 20th century. This handbook serves as a resource for the classification and identification of projectile point types found in Alabama and nearby regions, addressing a significant gap in archaeological knowledge in this area. The work stems from extensive field research and aims to provide a systematic approach to categorizing stone artifacts based on their characteristics and contextual associations. This handbook is now online for free or purchase at https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/39974
