Description: | Description by Nicholas Thomas:This is a notched flake with retouch.The lower left dorsal margin has a large notch, retouched from both faces. There is a small notch at the proximal right margin, which is retouched along its whole length. The distal end is broken.The flint is mottled black in colour. It is probably derived from a local beach pebble but this is unclear with only tertiary cortex.MERCER (1981) illustrates a similar piece on Page 127 Fig 55 No L94, which he calls an edge-trimmed flake and dates to the Neolithic period.
