I like brokes and then I hate them. There just isnt enough to know what they were or what period they are from for the age. I hate that you cant say for sure when a scraper was made due to the fact they have used and made them for thousands of yrs. The only way you could come close is if you found a point next to it and then you still dont know for sure if the soil has been mixed up. But that last one with the flaking I would guess archaic period. Most with that style is archaic or earlier. Woodland usually did more of a scattered and undefined flaking. Archaic and earlier did the side strikes. Paleo did allot of over shot flaking which means from one side to the other in one strike and they did some grinding.
