Description: | A small flake of grey brown flint with the right margin backed by pebble cortex. On the dorsal surface there remains the flakelet scars of platform preparation prior to flake removal. At the distal end there is a small notch and a little abrupt retouch on the adjacent margin to create a small spur which may have been used as a piercer. This expedient tool is one of many found in this locality. Butler(2005) describes 'utilised and retouched flakes or blades' on page 134.
