Call me ignorant but I'm not certain that I know exactly what a "Pecking & Grinding" toolkit looks like. Good post...

Looks like a pecker to me!

Looks like a flint knapping tool. A billet. Gary

I would say that rock was used as found but not modified. It could have and probably did have a lot of different uses.

I think they used natural smooth rocks that "fit in the hand" and used them to chip. I have one similar that has obvious peck marks on the end that I excavated along with a nice archaic preform.
