Description: | A fragment of heat altered flint ,of grey brown translucent colour ,with opaque cream inclusions. One side is thermally damaged with spall cavities. There are signs of bifacial working on one edge , but it is blunt and wavy edged as though it is from an exhausted discoidal core. There are short and very fine lengths of retouch around the margin, perhaps from a scraping task. Butler(2005) describes 'utilised and retouched flakes or blades' on page 134.
