    A flake from knapping stone tools. Could have been used as a small blade or scraper.

            I have a bunch of those or very similarly-shaped artifacts from La Salle county—it’s a scraper.

                It is an artifact. It is a flake struck to use as a cutting edge. Some resharpening on it
