Description: | A large pot-lid spall of heat damaged altered red and grey flint. The dorsal surface is largely original and carries 2 straight, parallel ridges which may be from a competent blade technology. Its' left margin has 2 semi-abruptly flaked notches which may be from re-use of this fragment harvested from a hearth area. The ventral surface is the thermal spall and within it is a major blown out concavity which would have made a good finger hold for further semi-abrupt edge-work on the right margin to be used as a side scraper. Other knowing use of pot-lid dimpled waste with ready-made finger holds occurrs in West Penwith.
