Description: | Late neolithic to late Bronze Age D shaped flint scraper manufactured on previously worked flint. Struck from a tertiary flake, it has a patinated white exterior with mid grey core. The flint was probably originally upper Paleolithic to early Mesolithic debitage or a broken tool, subsequently reworked, probably during the Bronze Age, but possibly in the late neolithic. At least two phases of retouching are evident so it may well have been reused twice. Final use as a tool dates to between c and c BC.Length is 41mm, width 48mm, depth 12mm, and the weight 29.4g.
