24Manuport,tabular25 GroundstoneNon-locally occurring tabular rock.Any stone item that is primarily manufactured through abrasion, polish, or impaction, oris used to grind, abrade, polish, or impact.Functional Type DescriptionsFunctionalCode Type Description1Angulardebris,retouchedDetached piece lacking identifiable ventral surface exhibiting a series of small negativescars that extend from the edge perimeter.2Angulardebris,utilizedDetached piece lacking identifiable ventral surface exhibiting edge damage attributableto human usage. Edge damage may consist of microflaking, edge rounding, ridge oredge frosting, polish, striations. or battering.3Chopper,BifacialTool with bidirectional flakes scars along one or more edges and use wear in the form ofbattering.Chopper, Tool with unidirectional flake scars along one or more edges and use wear in the form of4 Unifacial battering.Core, Objective piece exhibiting a series of small negative scars extending from edge5 retouched perimeter.Objective piece exhibiting edge damage attributable to human usage. May consist of6 Core, utilized microflaking, edge rounding, ridge or edge frosting, polish, striations. or battering.tool characterized by a long narrow projection used for drilling somewhat hardermaterials such as soft stone or bone. Wear, if present, would result from rotary motion7 Drill, nfs (tip or edge rounding, microflaking, striations perpendicular to tip.Drill,expanding8 base parallel or roughly parallel sided drill with basal extensions for hafting9 Drill, straight parallel or roughly parallel sided drill with no lateral or basal extensions for haftingFlake, detached piece with identifiable ventral surface exhibiting a series of small negative scars10 retouched that extend from the edge perimeter.Detached piece with an identifiable ventral surface exhibiting edge damage attributableto human usage. Edge damage may consist of microflaking, edge rounding, ridge oredge frosting, polish, striations. or battering.Flake,11 utilized12 Flaked Tool, Other (specify in comments)13 Gravertool characterized by a short edge projection which has been produced by unidirectionalor bidirectional flaking; used for incising or perforating soft materials (hide, bone,wood).items with a low edge angle (less than 40 degrees) produced by unidirectional orbidirectional flaking; edge rounding, polish, or microflaking if present may appear onboth surfaces, striations will be parallel or oblique; production input may be minimal butsome is required to distinguish knives from utilized flakes. May be hafted14 KnifeProjectile15 Point Unifacial or bifacial tool that was made to be hafted onto a projectileartifacts with high edge angle (>50 degrees) formed by contiguous or overlapping flakescars. May be straight, concave or convex. Microflaking and striations may be present16 Scraper, nfs on one edge surface.
