Nearly cross like, basal thinning.
Chipped stone knives (leaf-shaped). Ledger count listed as 44 or 26? Numbers of specimens in upper left hand corner of ledger were entered by Frank Barnett who checked the material in 1939, working as a volunteer.* Two blades or scrapers (5674/54, 5674/2) returned from Grant County Public Utility District, Wanapum Dam Heritage Center on January 25, 1995. These materials were originally sent to Grant County PUD for future exchange (see Borrower's Agreement - 1966), but the exchange papers were never drawn up. Since this material was only loaned, not deaccessioned, the Grant County PUD returned it to the Burke. (L. Phillips, 1/26/95). Thirty-six bifaces counted, previous count on computer was forty-four. There are 32 chert, 1 basalt, 1 obidian and 2 unknown stone bifaces. (6/95). NOTE: At least one was loaned to Washington State Parks and determined to be lost while on loan. R.Andrews 9/15/1995. *Information is from the original accession ledger.
Flaked stone scrapers or scaling knives. Locality: North side Columbia R., Wash. opposite Umatilla, OR. Remarks: traded to CMNH.* According the Accession Record eighteen (18) scrapers were accessioned. Only fifteen (15) have been located. Perhaps it is the three missing ones that were traded to CMNH. Of the fifteen (15) chipped stone tools (scrapers) found in Burke collections, eleven of these were numbered 9071/1-8, 9071/10, 9071/11, and 9071/13. The numbers have worn off of four; we have assigned these four tools 9071/9, 9071/12, 9071/14, and 9071/15. We have assigned the three missing ones the numbers 9071/16, 9071/17, and 9071/18, although if they are found in our collections they may only have the number 9071 on them (these newly assigned numbers should be written on the artifacts if they are found). *Information is from the original accession ledger.
