Description: | A thick opaque cream grey and mid grey banded flint flake with an approximately pyramidal dorsal surface carrying truncated flake scars from different directions. It may have been removed from an exhausted and hence multi-platform core. The flake has a distal point. The left margin leading to it has been semi-abruptly retouched on its ventral side. On the opposite right convergent margin there is a notch. The flake scars are lustrous, suggesting that the flint may have been heated. Mercer(1981) illustrates a utilised flake on page 129, fig 56, L100.
