Description: | Flint flake, sub ovoid in plan and slug shaped in profile. On the dorsal side the distal tip is battered and the proximal end snapped. The left margin consists of cortex and the right has a worked notch. The mesial area is angle fractured. On the ventral side the left margin is retouched around the back of the notched area on the dorsal side.The flint is mid grey with a dark grey band running next to the cortex edge. The cortex itself is secondary and consists of dark cream tones.Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on page 131, Fig. 55, No. 4 which is dated to the Neolithic period.
