Description: | A chunky flake with finely trimmed edges working towards the point which forms a piercer or borer. Cortex on the dorsal side acts as backing when flake is being used as a piercer/borer. It is flat on the ventral side.The flint is dark brown in colour and was likely derived from a local beach pebble.Butler [2005] illustrates a similar example on page 186, Fig.76, No.4 which is dated to the later Neolithic.
