Description: | A large Neolithic scraper, which has been elaborately worked. The scraper has a plano-convex section, with one flat side and one convex. The dorsal surface is covered with approximately 80% cortex. The flint has a rounded shape. It has been formed from a light greyish-white flint, with creamy-white flaws within the flake matrix. The bulb of percussion and striking platform have been removed. There are also some shallow arrises. The edges of the dorsal surface have been heavily retouched, forming a scraper-like appearance. The retouch is shallow. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Morris, Rebecca | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
