This parallel retouched point (Ste. Anne-Varney type) dates from the end of the Late Palaeoindian period (10 800 to 9 000 years BP). It was found on the Kruger 2 site in Sherbrooke (Borough of Brompton). In this era, the tundra had changed into a fir forest due to global warming. This Plano culture point is typical of those used by hunters from the plains of the American West. Its presence in the Sherbrooke region is evidence of a second wave of migration of hunters, who arrived from the southwest.
