Video Glossary: Burin

A burin is an interesting artifact that is made on a flake, and it's used to work wood or bone or something like that. And there's a split edge on the flake. This flake was snapped in half to get a, kind of a, thick edge, and the actual working edge is this tip up here that is a broader, flatter surface with tiny little nibbles taken off of the edge where it's been used to probably cut a groove in some wood or bone. So, that's an archaeological example. Here's a modern example. It's a flake that I made, that the snapped edge here is a straight end at the corner that I can use to cut into this wood to carve surfaces. I could do this in bone, I could do this in something else, and it'll leave a straight groove cutting down through the material. And then the wear on the artifact itself comes right at the tip. It comes off the edge of that tip. And so, I could use this to cut into the material. Rather than a thin, sharp flake, which might make its- a line, if I want to actually cut through the surface, I could use my burin.
