I know, I know, most likely not. But I keep wondering about this one. worked on both sides, edges pretty much have a clean breaks all the way around, except for a few small places that look like it was shaped this way intentionally. :icon_scratch: Just a neat nature-broken piece of scraper? The thickness if fairly uniform also, except for tapering in one spot.

thanks for looking,

I've got a couple pieces similar to that one, naturegirl.
Here's what Neaderthal said about mine: "Both of the others are artifacts. The red piece is from a mid-section of a large bi-face, and they gray one from a ventral waste flake. Someone recently showed me a few tools from the Ark. that were fashioned in the same way - intentionally burined / cleaved edges forming a circular tool. I've seen others pop up, all from this area. "And here's a link to the post---See what you think : http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,276258.0.html
Cool little artifact, NG! :icon_thumright: :icon_thumleft:
 

Well jeez, sancreek :laughing9: I forgot about that post of yours! Honest, too many fumes at work :laughing7: Yep, I'd say it's like yours, they look so much alike it's uncanny, huh? Not sure what they'd use it for, but i'm sure it was a handy little thing. Thank you for the reply :hello:
