Bifaces

/ˈbaɪˌfeɪsɪz/ noun

Definition

Plural of biface; multiple prehistoric stone tools with sharp edges worked on both sides.

Etymology

Regular English plural of 'biface,' maintaining the archaeological terminology standard.

Kelly Says

When archaeologists find caches of bifaces at ancient sites, it tells us these weren't casual tools but deliberately crafted, valued possessions—sometimes containing hundreds of identical ones suggests manufacturing centers or specialized workshops in the Stone Age.
