Sure, the edge of a stone (most likely artifact) that experienced a bending fracture.

Thanks !
Had to look up what a bending fracture is...
per Wiki "what is referred to as a bending fracture, so-called because the flake is quite literally bent or "peeled" from the objective piece. Flakes removed in this manner lack a bulb of percussion, and are distinguished instead by the presence of a small lip where the flake's stiking platform has separated from the objective piece"
Rich.
