Have you ever found what you thought could probably be an arrowhead or an old stone tool while walking along a shoreline, sandbar or plowed field? Our members gather at shows to share what they have found. We are Avocational Archaeologists.
The OnLine Gregory Perino Library
Gregory Perino was an outstanding avocational archaeologist who through much study and field work contributed more to our knowledge and understanding of the early inhabitants of North America than perhaps any other single individual.
Mr. Perino wrote many articles that were included in the Central States Journal over the years. One of the columns he wrote regularly was called "Points and Barbs."
Central States Archaeological Societies, Inc. (CSASI) has graciously granted permission for the publication of Points and Barbs in it's entirity on our website. It will be located in our online Gregory Perino Library.
CSASI is a non-profit organization that publishes a Journal every quarter. Our society is one of the member states of this organization along with 18 other states.
We hope that you will return often to see what kind of progress we are making. Please visit our Press Release page to find out about projects that we are involved in at the present time. For further review of past projects, visit our Portfolio page.
