Spalling Down a Large Hornstone Nodule for the Biface Cache
Channel: Prehistoric Living
Date: 2021-05-15

This video is exactly as the title says. I get a rush taking these big flakes, really makes me feel alive! I turn the last chunk into a small blade core, so that takes up a lot of time for about the last half of the video. There are three large flake removals and I got a nice blade too, so if you're just here for the big stuff you can take off after that. Thanks for watching.
