✅ SOLVED Could this be a scraper?

[cti4sw]

I found this stone that appears to have (worn) shaping marks on it, wondering if it could be a scraper. It fits into my hand.





I believe it to be made of a flaking shale that also composed an old stone axe head I found in the late summer.

Thanks to any who assist. Happy New Year!

Fits your hand and has an edge like that. I vote YES.

 

[unclemac]

it could be...made and used once then tossed.

I say just a rock.

I found it in a creek. Probably should have mentioned that before.

I agree. It's just a creek tumbled rock and not an artifact.

 

[rock]

When the creeks flood the cobbles will tumble. If they tumble fast enough with the rushing water they will hit a bigger rock in the bottom which will cause the rocks to crack. I believe that is what you have a natural broken rock which has been water worn smooth after it broke. So natural

Don't feel bad. I've brought in tons of pieces similar to that.

Always better to bring it home and get more information than to possibly leave an artifact in the field.
