Cores

Only eight specimens are considered to have been cores. Three are of

quartzite, three of agate and two of fossilized wood. The largest is

about 3 × 3 × 2 inches, the smallest about a one inch cube. All are

irregular, none fluted or prismatic. Since there were so few cores

it is believed that the primary work of preparing flakes took place

elsewhere, perhaps at the source of the material.
