Description: | A flint scraper dating to the mesolithic period, c. 8500 to 3800 BC. The object is semi-circular in plan and the front is faceted with a central plane and two side panels. There is retouching along one of the side panels. The back of the object is fairly flat apart from the bulb of percussion. There is a lateral break which suggests the object would have been longer and probably an end scraper. The object has a consistent creamy white patina.
