Description: | An end scraper. dark brown and grey in colour with cream inclusions, which has been uni-facially retouched and expediently manufactured.The right margin and proximal end exhibit backing with continuous retouch of abrupt angle and edge type extent for comfortable handling. The left margin acts as the scraper edge and possesses partial retouch of a semi-abrupt angle. The morphology of all retouch is of sub-parallel type. Several notches have been created at the distal end giving a denticulated edge possibly allowing for additional sawing function.Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on p143, fig5.129, F150 which dates to the Late Neolithic.
