content: Style: Elongated Luster: Dull Broken: Yes Break Location: Mid Element: Complete Shape/Form: Spatulate Working shape: Convex Edge Modification: Ground smooth Manufacturing Notes: Smooth neck Design: Flattened round X-section Residue: Sediment Use Trace: Bit is definitely damaged, but only on one face, meaning force was applied from only one direction. Damage is not severe and amounts to several flake scars, deepest is .32cm. Comments: Piece is broken in 2 places. Center piece was clearly in a different depositional context because it has weathered much more than the other 2 fragments. Raw material appears calcareous.
