Description: | Flint flake, square in plan and a pointed lozenge shape in profile. The dorsal side is convex with a lateral ridge. On the distal edge there is serration scarring. The proximal end has a curved clean snapped edge. The left and right margins are unevenly fractured. The ventral side has a flat surface and the distal end is serrated and worn.The flint has opaque putty coloured tones. It appears to be a edge-blunted truncated and serrated-edged flake.Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on page 143, Fig. 63, No. L. 206 which is dated to the Neolithic period.
