Description: | A probable crude flint end scraper of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. The scraper has been made from a secondary flake (with a small area of cortex remaining). At the proximal end is the striking platform and below this on the ventral surface is the bulb of percussion. Faint ripples radiate down the ventral surface. On the dorsal surface there are a number of flaking scars. The distal end appears to have been crudely retouched, although some use of the natural cortex has also been made.
