Judging from the wear patterns I think your scraper was hafted and used to dig with. How big is it? Super find.
 

Thanks,it's about 3.5 long. 2 wide at the widest part,about 1 inch small end.
 

That is what I would call a chipped celt, A great find for sure:occasion14:
 

Monster,thanks for pointing that out. I googled some images, it does look a lot like some of the celts in the images. Sure hope it is a Celt.
 

Very nice Celt/Adze, definitely not just a scraper. Material looks like Burlington chert, maybe its just the pics. Thanks for the view.
 

Super nice find !!!!!
 

Thanks for the info everyone.Here is the only other Celt,I have ever found. This is what,I think of when,I think of a Celt. Glad you guys could I D the flint one for me. The granite one is 5 inches from Illinois.

it sure is a nice piece

i think the purpose of use is some thing possibly different than a scraper?
 

Caveman's tool? Cool
 

This is about 2.5 long. Would this be a small Celt?
