Description: Flint scraper, almost ovoid in plan and lozenge shaped in profile. The dorsal side has an uneven convex surface. The upper right margin is lightly retouched and the lower part notched. The left margin is fractured. The proximal end is spalled. The ventral side has a largely flat surface with uneven contours near the proximal end. It appears to be a combination scraper/notch tool.The flint is pale grey with a tan coloured section. The secondary cortex is also tan coloured.Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on page 169, Fig. 71, No. 5 which is dated to the Neolithic period.
