Description: | A side variant scraper, cream in colour, which has been bi-facially retouched and expediently manufactured.The left margin exhibits continuous retouch with a semi-abrupt angle and is of long extent. The retouch morphology of this margin is of sub-parallel type. There is also partial retouch with semi-abrupt angle to the proximal and distal ends which, together with a 70% cortex presence, allows for comfortable handling.The bulb of percussion has been removed from the ventral face for improved scraper function.Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on p132, fig5.118, F19 which dates to the Early Neolithic.
