Description: | A flint tool; a scraper dating from the Neolithic to Bronze Age period. It is formed on a flake of opaque orange / tan flint with cortex on the right side surviving. The tool has three scraping edges which seem to be different ages and used at different times. The earliet is the left proximal side which was worked from the ventral face. This was replaced by the left distal edge, again worked from the ventral face. Finally, there is much less worn abrupt retouch on the right distal side, from the ventral face.
