Description: | Flint flake, roughly ovoid in plan and lozenge shaped in profile. The right margin has been retouched with a notch mid way. The proximal end has also been retouched for possible use as a piercer. The distal end has two scalloped edges which may have enabled it to be used as a scraper. The left margin has fine serration. It is translucent brown with cream flecks in colour.Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on page 115, Fig. 46, No. 2 which is dated to the Mesolithic period.
