    Base of a broken point, most likely paleo.

    Not saying for sure, but it could be the base of a paleo point. It appears to be quite thin, and it also probably broke during it's manufacture due to some unfinished flaking. Photo of posssible finished point? Click image for larger version.

    It's the base of a broken Knife or Point, but I doubt it's Paleo. I don't see any Paleo flaking or grinding in any of those pics.

    I was leaning towards scraper as well just thought I was odd that it was perfectly square and sharpened on 3 sides never found on like it before thanks for the help guys!

    G.R. is right... I just didn't explain..I think it was probably repurposed from knife to scraper. I would guess archaic.
