Description: | Flint flake, oblong in plan and plano convex in profile. The dorsal side has a high uneven convex surface. The distal end is mostly covered by cortex. On the upper right margin there is a notch. Both the left margin and proximal end have abrupt flake removal. The ventral side has a flat surface with low-angle retouch on the proximal end and the left margin has some flake removal mid way.The flint is grey and light brown tones with a secondary cream-coloured cortex.Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on page 131, Fig. 55, No. 4 which is dated to the Neolithic period.
