Hereās a few other recoveries that seem to be somewhere between a tool and a classic flake maybe I look too deep but Iām curious what others thinkā¦ all pieces found on a bluff under an overhang, in limestone debris and loess.
A. Canāt decide if it was part of a uniface scraper, or if itās a very late removal from a biface. Seems to me like it was retouched after removal
B. Again I would go debitage, but there seems to be some attempt to work the backside which tells me they came back to it. Still it doesnāt really resemble much of a tool
C. This last one doesnāt have much fine flaking except maybe tiny serrations on one margin but it has the same general form of many better made scrapers from the same spot. Maybe this is just a very rough example?ā¦ maybe itās just coincidence.
