Description: | Description by Nicholas Thomas:This is a notched flake. The proximal end is broken. There is a notch at the right edge of the proximal end, which has been worked from the ventral face. The left margin of the proximal end has been retouched from the ventral face. The ventral face has no scars.The flint is pale brown in colour.
