Fragment Item Number: 2021.O.002:287 from the Sto:lo Research & Resource Management Centre

Description

A large fragment, it's a desaturated semi-shiny tan with some white speckling. The dorsal surface is covered entirely by a very smooth brown white speckled cortex. There's a potential point of impact site on the distal end, to the right of the catalogue label. The ventral surface remains unworked aside from the inital removal process. There's a small harris line fracture above the catalogue number, visible from both the dorsal and ventral surface. The ventral surface also has some tiny patches of possible rust stains along the proximal end.
