RETURN TO PAGE 1

    This is the fourth largest biface in the cache. Both sides

were thinned by striking off large percussion flakes. This

picture illustrates a long percussion flake that was struck

off at an oblique angle diagonally across the center. This

flake was originally over 3 inches (7.6 cm) long. The other

side has three large percussion flake removals that cover

over half of the surface. This biface was made of Burlington

chert and it measures 4 11/16 inches (11.9 cm) long, 2 11/16

inches (6.8 cm) wide and 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) thick.

Biface from the McKinnis Clovis cache.
