Title: SCRAPER (TOOL) [Go to resource]
Description: Flake from non beach cortex with retouch at the proximal end making it into an end scraper. There is some cortex remaining along left and right margins, dorsal view. Some damage as viewed from the dorsal side can be seen at distal end. This is due to abrasion. There is some degree of patination on the cortex remaining at the left hand side, dorsal view.The flint is a mid grey colour with some cream/grey inclusions and was likely derived from nodular flint [non beach cortex].Mercer illustrates a similar example on page 133, Fig.58, No. L123 which is dated to the Neolithic.
