UN-USED CANAANEAN BLADE This unused blade was found on the surface of a house floor in a cache along with eight other blades and one tabular scraper. It has a "classic" Canaanean style trapezoidal cross section that was formed by the removal of three previous blades. This blade also has a flat profile except for a slight curve near the distal end and fairly uniform parallel edges. The bulb-of-percussion is very thin and is only slightly over 1/32 of an inch thicker than the rest of the blade. This blade measures 5 3/16 inches (13.2 cm) long.
