The distal end may have a tiny notch on striking platform. The proximal end and right margin are snapped. The left margin has two possible retouched notches. The surface on the ventral side is flat and there is some gloss and visible conchoidal ripples.The flint has a dark grey band and mid grey tones.Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on page 186, Fig. 76, No. 6 which is dated to the Neolithic period.Pers. comm.
