Science - Archaeology / Stone tools | | Russian term or phrase: пластинки с притупленным краем и концами | | I know that "пластинки с притупленным краем" is "backed bladelets" but how about the "концами"? I think it's really important that I get this right but can't find any information about what it might be. |
