Strange piece found today!
Here is a piece I found creek hunting today. Its probably the most unique peice I have found to date. Measures to almost 2 3/4", uniface, very fine flaking, and an extreemly beveled edge, the side bevel is about 45 degrees. The material is also some that I have never seen here in southern Oklahoma and is very hard to get a picture of how fine the flaking is. Keep in mind I am no Pablo Picasso. If its a scraper its the finest example i have seen and am also curious about age and material. (Colors; grey, red, brown with a waxy lustre)
