Description: | Flint chert flake, almost ovoid and lozenge shaped in profile. It appears to be a notched flake. On the dorsal side the proximal end and upper left and have been snapped. The lower left and upper right margins feel sharp and are retouched. The upper right side of the distal end has two worked notches. On the ventral side the distal notch and lower right margin have been retouched. It is pale yellow grey with a rosy tip in colour and a blue patina.Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on page 131, Fig. 55, No. 4 which is dated to the Neolithic period.
