SRT139.7 <br />Form: The specimen is a tertiary flake fragment, • <br />triangular in shape and lenticular in cross- <br />section. It exhibits retouch unilaterally <br />and unifacially. <br />Material: Pink chert <br />Dimensions: 2.08 cm long x 2.45 cm. wide x .51 cm. thick <br />Retouch: Unilateral edge retouch of the dorsal face <br />Functional <br />Interpretation: The specimen shows steep retouch occuring on ~ <br />one lateral edge of the dorsal face. Associated <br />wear includes scalar scars as well as a series <br />of step fractures, all indicative of some <br />type of scraping activity. <br />• <br />5RT139.10 <br />Form: The specimen is a distal fragment of a <br />projectile point. Tool form exhibits <br />a biconvex cross-section with slight <br />excurvate bilateral edges. Fractures <br />include both a medial and distal snap. <br />Material: Brown chert including granular impurities. <br />Dimensions: 2.03 cm. long x 1.62 cm. wide x .50 cm. thick <br />Retouch: Irregular bifacial pressure flaking <br />Functional <br />Interpretation: The size of the tool, coupled with the <br />lack of wear along the lateral edges <br />indicate probable utilization as a projectile <br />point. <br />• <br />38 <br />
