Hello,
I found an interesting artifact while digging today. I read quite a bit about Native American artifacts, and I've been checking this forum almost daily. However, I never found anything like this. It looks like a preform/biface that's halfway done, but I'm wondering if this could be a tool instead? It is not broken, and it seems weird to me that a native would throw it away without finishing it. Any info that you can provide about it would be much appreciated!
length = 3 & half inches, width = 1 inch
Made with chert.
Found near Maine, USA.
Here's a view of the top:
