Description: | An edge trimmed flake, small, with possible attempt to work edges towards a point. But the flake is too small to be an effective awl/piercer/borer. One edge opposite the trimmed one has been backed for using the flake. There is natural abrasion at the proximal end.The flint is a medium grey colour with some speckles and was likely derived from a local beach pebble.Mercer [1981] illustrates a similar example on page 129, fig. 56, No.L100 which is dated to the Neolithic.
