Description |
English: A translucent orangey-red flake of chert.It may have been heated to reach this colour.The flake has been struck from the cortex of a pebble. The right margin has been trimmed with scallop shaped snaps to expose a point at the distal end. A lustrous flake has parted from the converging left and right margin; perhaps during use as an awl or piercer. Mercer(1981) illustrates a piercer on page 135, fig 59, L150. |
