These Nebo Hill type dart points were collected from an archeological site in Johnson County and donated to the Kansas Historical Society in 2022. Nebo Hill people gathered plants and hunted game and had a distinctive style of projectile points. The Enright site is what archeologists call a multicomponent site, meaning it was occupied at various times, from approximately 10,000 years ago to today.
