Description: | This is a rejuvenation flake with thick nodular cortex, which has been used as a cutting flake. It has clearly visible bulb on the ventral face and three small flakes have been removed on the dorsal face while still on the core, so fortuitously creating a sharp edge.The flint is dark grey in colour and of a nodular origin with thick secondary rough cortex.Butler 2005 illustrates a similar piece on Page 36 Fig 14 Nos 1-4 which he call struck flakes, dated the Neolithic.
