Debitage ?

[Knockneed Man]

Hey Treasurenet experts - does this look to be debitage or natural? I find a good bit of this material in my zone, widely scattered, but not piles or flakings of it. Thoughts?

Do you ever find it with other flakes or artifacts? Or any artifacts made from the same material? I find a type of flint around here that i think is mostly natural but the natives used it too so I judge by the other things around it.

To me it doesn’t look like debitage or artifact related

No I really haven’t. In fact the only artifacts I’ve found in this area were from a much darker material. Nothing else found around it, but was curious if it might be something indicating a spot. Thank you.

Thanks for your opinion Arrow. I was skeptical it was anything, but since I’ve found a few pieces similar to this I didn’t want to overlook anything.

Doesn't look like debitage to me either. I'm used to seeing slivers whether fat or thin when I think of debitage.

In Ohio we'd call that glacial flint, transported, fractured and ground by natural forces.
