Description: | Flint pebble scraper, round in plan and plano convex in profile. The dorsal side is convex and largely covered with cortex. The upper left margin, distal end and most of the right margin are worked with semi-abrupt retouch on the left and distal edge and low angle retouch on the right margin. The proximal end is cortex. On the upper central area of the surface there is a fractured concavity. The ventral side has a flat surface with conchoidal ripples and some flake removal. There is edge wear on the right margin.The flint has mid grey brown tones with light flecks and a secondary cortex of cream in colouring.Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 132, Fig, 5.118, No. F. 21 which is dated to the Neolithic period.
