Dimensions: | L: 2.1, W: 1.9, Th: 0.7 | |||||||
Remarks: | JFC 5/7/93: retouched edge gives a dorsal/lateral scraper margin (too thick to be a sickle element). Cf. CR: This piece is a backed and truncated flake w/ a R distal oblique béc/perçoir, w/ L straight truncation by marginal retouch; inverse distal retouch refines béc. |
