Description: | A twisted flake of grey and light grey mottled flint.On the dorsal surface the proximal end has bladelet removals before the flake was removed from the core as platform preparation. Sinuous flake ridges run over the surface with nodular cortex on the right side and margin. Near the distal end on the left margin is a small but finely worked scraper of parallel invasive bladelet facets, finished with abrupt retouch. From this a patch of use gloss extends on the ventral surface. Butler(2005) illustrates this kind of invasive retouch on a scraper on page 166, fig 70, 9.
