Description: | Worked flint tool dating to the Neolithic period, (3500-2100BC). It is sub oval in plan and rectangular in cross-section. The flint has a slight curve in profile. On one half of the dorsal face the outer cortex still remains while on the ventral face the cortex takes up a quarter of the surface. Conchoidal ripples are visible on the dorsal face and the outer edges have been retouched. It has a smooth black patina where the cortex has been removed and a rough mid brown patina where it remains.
