Description: | Flint microlith. It appears to be a bladelet, plano-convex in plan and section, which may have been snapped off at the distal end. On the dorsal face there is a notch on the left margin towards the proximal end. This notch has had short, semi-abrupt retouch. Above the notch, on the left margin, the edge is sharp, possibly serrated. There is a notch on the right margin towards the distal end, which also shows retouch. The bulb is visible on the ventral face.The flint is grey with pale spots. Some brown staining can be seen on the dorsal face towards the proximal end.Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 114, Figure 5.98, L48 and describes it as a notched bladelet.
