Description (summary) 2009-08-04 sG Two lithic artifacts: an obsidian blade with one sharp edge preserved, and a flint core. Both are of similar size; measurements of larger piece, obsidian blade, given. Since both were encrusted with soil when found and thus appeared to be the same color, perhaps they were grouped together in the field because they were thought to comprise two pieces of the same object.
