Description: | A soft hammered short flake from a cortical platform of a brown flint pebble. The dorsal surface carries 2 sinuous converging flake scars and the distal end is terminated by a hinge fracture from the opposite direction. The left margin is semi-abruptly edged on its dorsal side and this continues from the medial to the distal on the ventral side, ending in a small notch. The right margin has a short untidy length of semi-invasive retouch. The indistinct preform and basic retouch suggest Later Prehistoric work. Butler(2005) illustrates a semi-abruptly retouched short flake on page 186, fig.76, 6.
