Description

A medium sized secondary flake, possibly fire altered. Two small patches of desaturated brown cortex reside on opposite ends of the mesial portion. The belonging is slightly more dull and dark than the cortex, with a medium grain. There's two impact sites on the larger section of cortex, one for each face. A small bulb of percussion can be seen on the dorsal surface, along with many flake arrises, some negative scarring, and a medium grey scarring section near a patch of potential oxygenated iron and sooting.
