Description: | An extended end variant scraper which has been uni-facially retouched and expediently manufactured.The distal end of the dorsal face exhibits partial retouch with a semi-abrupt angle and is of edge type in extent. The morphology of the distal retouch is of sub-parallel type. Flake scars are in evidence on the left side of the dorsal face combined with similar retouch, to that found at the distal end, continuing extensively along the left margin.Concoidal ripples are present on the ventral face and the bulb of percussion has been removed.The scraper is light grey in colour with cream mottling, is sub-circular in plan and plano-convex in profile and section.Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on p127, fig51, 3 which dates to the Early Neolithic.
