This type was proposed after work at the Rehbein Mounds, Richland County and comparison with unclarified points from several other sites. The Honey Creek name was derived from the creek which flows near the Durst Rockshelter. A point associated with a linear mound burial on Picnic Point in Madison is probably within the range of this type. Common in Wisconsin and adjacent states.
Points have straight or slightly convex edges.
Bases are straight to slightly convex and may be flared, notches are small and often broken. While most are bifacial, some are simply retouched flake points with corner notches.
