Description: | A Mesolithic lithic implement, possibly a multi-purpose tool due to dentriculates on one lateral edge and re-touch along the distal end.

The distal end is asymmetrically concave in plan and has re-touch on the ventral face. Due to the asymmetrical nature of the distal end, one corner is slightly extended. This end has the elements of a burin. The dorsal surface has three linear vertical scars, and a fourth across the distal end. The ventral surface has ripples, and no other scars.

The other lateral edge appears to have a '
