Curious rock shelter find

[1320]

This could be nothing at all but in it's context with other artifacts and a depth of nearly three feet makes me wonder. The rock type is also unique to this shelter. Is it possible that a point or knife created these marks? The lines don't appear to be artwork but more like sharpening marks maybe?

After reviewing the post, the photos don't clearly show that the marks extend over the "lip" on the rock on the right side, and I think I see an arrow form on the "back" side.....lol....

If it is sandstone it may been used for burnishing the edge of points and tools for the flaking process>------->

It is sandstone. I tried in vain to get a good picture of the edges but I can't pull it off. All four edges are cut up, even more so than the surface. Many thanks for the reply.
