Description: | A light grey to off white mottled length of flint with a twisted axis, contains a prominent angular hook, gouged out of the right margin (distal end) of the dorsal face. The right margin of the dorsal face from the medial to the proximal edge appears to have been retouched as a blade edge, while the distal end has been partially backed making the edge more appropriate as a scraper. A piece of cortex remains on the right margin distal end. A medial ridge is present on the left side of the artefact running from the proximal to distal edges. The proximal end appears to be blunt.The ventral face provides some evidence of conchoidal ripples, with the bulb of percussion still present. (End Scraper / Blade ?)
