It’s a scrapper, prolly archaic..

It looks like one of those odd adze tools found in South Texas. Clearfork, Guadalupe, Nueces, Olmos and Dimmit adzes/gouges. Those are all different types, but I can’t tell them apart. There are some triangular uniface ones.

Pretty good observation there Clovis. It doesn't really look like a preform and that flat/smooth side and overall shape makes me agree with ya on that call. Nice find there AG.

I think it’s a finished tool of some kind. Scraper maybe

It's uniface...Paleo? Probably a scraper.

Here is a bit more info on Clear Fork Gouges if anyone is interested in this type of tool. Unique style that is localized in a relatively small part of Texas.

This link takes you to the Texas Beyond History website, and a page about these tools. There are a couple of pictures and description of how they were used. Scraper like in that they were pulled, not an adze or gouge in the traditional sense of metal tools.

The YouTube video shows some uniface examples. Triangular shape, often uniface, those ridges and high point that sets up the beveled working edge.
