Description: | A fine translucent brown nodular flint flake of roughly triangular plan with the pointed distal and proximal ends truncated. The straight right margin has a long facet which has edge gloss towards the distal end and has been abruptly flaked towards the proximal end as has the convergent lower left margin. It may be that this part was hafted. The left margin has a ventral mesal notch. Perhaps the tool was an awl and the tip has snapped? Mercer(1981) illustrates an edge trimmed flake on page 129, fig 56, L95.
