Hurt (1953, p. 211-2) quotes me as believing that the triple channel-flake pattern of the Enterline Fluted point is prototypic to the flaking from a basal nipple as noted on the Folsom Fluted, thus placing Enterline in a place typologically between Clovis Fluted and Folsom Fluted. This probably is what I should have said, and Hurt's interpretation is probably caused by my hedging on this question in correspondence, but it is not what I meant. I have made some statements on this problem elsewhere, probably with too great reservations (Witthoft, 1952, pp. 481-3, 492-4). Therefore I propose to make a more precise statement here, even though I am dealing in very conjectural matters. I have tried out these suggestions on a number of my colleagues in conversation and correspondence, and have found few of them willing to follow me far into the dimly-lighted areas of typological conjecture which follow.
