Description: | A retouched flint core tool of probable early Neolithic date.The core is roughly worked, semi-circular in section, with three to four vertical blade removal scars on the dorsal surface. On the ventral surface the position of the bulb-of-percussion indicates that this may have been a multi-platform core. There is evidence of abrupt retouch to two of the longer sides. The flint is an unpatinated dark grey colour. The tool measures 30.8mm long, 33.1mm wide and 14.1mm thick. It weighs 15.8g.
