Looks like a piece of flint. But not really worked much, gun flints have that square shape but too big for that,but could of been what they were trying too make
 

Yep a nice scraper
 

I'm sorry but I just don't see it being a scraper or any other tool. What am I missing?
 

You can definitely see flaking in pictures 3 and 4. I find a lot of Flake Tools that look just like one. Uniface and with at least one worked edge on them and sometimes some very fine edge work is done on these Tools.

probably missing lots of cool utilized flakes and thumb scrapers, sometimes called end scrapers when you are hunting.

there is a lot of evidence of workmanship showing on that piece.
 

I believe it's an artifact. Maybe just a practice piece, but more likely a quick knapped tool used for what was going on at the time at that site then tossed aside.
