Description: | Flint graver on a flake, sub-rectangular in plan, but with a projection at the distal end, convex-concave in profile and sub-rectangular in section. On the dorsal face, there is cortex along the right margin. The cortex is reddish brown towards the distal end, possibly as a result of being heated. There is semi-abrupt retouch on the distal edge to the left of the projection. There is a fault in the flint below the projection. The flint is grey with secondary cortex. It is likely to have derived from a local beach pebble.Mercer (1981) shows a similar graver on page 133, Figure 58, Number L136.
