Levallois core

This is a small flat core of a subtriangular shape, highly wrought. The counter-front retains the pebble crust, the platforms are modified with chips. At the fracture front, the negatives of the removals are elongated, but irregular in shape, set in one direction. Probably, it was originally intended to produce elongated sub-triangular blanks. On the sharpened end of the core, opposite the striking platform, there are several short, steep facets from chips that form the end of the core.
It has a functional purpose – designed to produce blanks of a given shape - elongated and subtriangular.
This is a typical item of the Paleolithic era in Eurasia.
