Description: | A small flint scraper of probable Early Neolithic date (3500 BC - 2900 BC). Length: 41.6mm; width: 32.7mm; thickness: 8.1mm; weight: 12.35g. The scraper is sub-oval in plan. It consists of a flat piece of flint with ripples on both sides. One end and side of one face has been re-touched to create a working surface forming a semi-abrupt angle with short scaled removals. Close to this worked end there is a small amount of light brown cortex. The remaining part of the implement is of varying shades of mottled grey. There is no bulb of percussion or striking platform.
