DOUGLAS COUNTY, WASHINGTON
RETURN TO PAGE 1
This is the largest of the 8
or more uniface tools that were
found during the excavation of the
East
Wenatchee Clovis
site. Uniface tools are made from flakes that are
flaked on
one side only. They represent the simplest form of stone
tools. The East Wenatchee Clovis site produced several
different types
of uniface tools, such as simple utilized
flakes, gravers, side-scrapers
and the end-side scraper
illustrated here. This end-side scraper is made
of Jasper
and it measures 6 3/8 inches (16.2 cm) long.
