This 'almost pecfectly round' stone..larger than a hardball 'baseball', but a bit smaller than a softball came from the same area as the 'mall/mallet tool pictured here as well. Seems to be of the same 'grainy' texture? Any info/I.D. ?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info old digger...So...it was just held in the palm of the hand?

Maybe this will give you a better idea.View attachment 891422View attachment 891423Most knappers use the top of their leg to rest the stone on while they work. This does not show all the ways to flint knapp or all the style of tools they used.
