Sumatralith from Nongke Xiaodong Cave Archeological Site, Cangyuan, and currently collected in Lincang Archeological Museum, Yunnan, China

A sumatralith is an oval to rectangular shaped stone artefact made by unifacially flaking around the circumference of a cobble. It is often used to infer the Hoabinhian character of a lithic assemblage.
