Description: | Chert flake scraper, sub-circular in plan, plano-convex in in section and sub-rectangular in profile. The dorsal face has primary cortex with semi-abrupt long retouch at both ends, on the left margin and towards the distal and proximal ends on the right margin. The central section of the right margin is sharp. It is a dark, grey-brown chert probably derived from a local beach pebble.Bond (2004) shows a similar (though less rounded in plan) blade scraper on page 145, Figure 5.131, Number 13. Butler (2005) has a similar example on page 126, Figure 5, Number 8.
