     This bone flake was removed from a segment of mammoth bone tibia. It's believed to have been deliberately removed or struck from a mammoth bone core that shows evidence of platform preparation. This flake was removed longitudinal from the end of the core. It measures approximately 6 7/8 inches (17.1 cm) long and 3 1/8 inches (8 cm) wide.
