Description: | This is a lump of flint with evidence of knapping and possibly fire cracked. It is probably of Neolithic origin. There is a clear platform and some conchoidal scars on the possible ventral surface. The possibly dorsal side has negative scars.The material is now a pale grey-brown with extensive crazing throughout the piece. This was found in the vicinity of 4 other recorded lithic tools.As to its original purpose, debate rages over whether this was intended to be a scraper or is a core.
