Description: | A short curved segment of a blade or flake of translucent brown flint. The dorsal surface has complex flake scars from a small multi-platform core or remnant. Both the distal and proximal ends have been truncated with the distal end shallowly sharpened and the proximal break semi-abruptly finished; perhaps a hafted element. The notches on each lateral margin may be to help this.Mercer illustrates a flake segment on page 143, fig 63, L204..
