What do y'all think? Bona fide or coincidental chips? Spent 3 hours on the river this morning, just now going through some "interesting" stuff I picked up. Wondering if I found anything other than a honkin' big (for me) piece of petrified wood, lol (last pic). Thanks!

a lot of flakes were also used as tools, but keep in mind if i strip twigs off a branch (modify the branch) and use it beat my kid with...i have made a "tool", even if i toss it aside later.
