Description | One edge is straight and the other edge is slightly convex. One edge converges in a point while the other is arcuate. Both edges have steep retouch and large flakes. The large flakes are overlain at the junction of the ventral and dorsal surfaces, with smaller flake removals. Some cortex remains at the rounded end. The top is "domed" by removing small flakes. There are no flake removals on the ventral surface. |
