Description: | Flint borer, on a flake that is sub-rectangular in plan, apart from a point midway along the right margin. On the dorsal face, there is abrupt, invasive, retouch along the distal edge. The right margin has a point formed by retouch above and below. There is also retouch, short and semi-abrupt, on the lower right margin. The flint is light brown, near translucent when held to the light. There is secondary cortex and it is likely to have derived from a local beach pebble.Butler (2005) has a similar example on page 169, Figure 71, Number 7.
