Description: | Flint pebble borer, ovoid in plan and almond shaped in profile. The distal tip has been retouched to a point with a blunt-snapped curve leading to the right margin which has semi-abrupt retouch and some edge wear. The proximal end is snapped and the left margin is cortex. On the ventral side the distal end has been retouched and there is also some adjacent flake removal.The flint is dark grey with a brown grey secondary cortex in colour.Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on page 186, Fig. 76, No. 2 which is dated to the Bronze Age.
