Description: | A complete flint scraper of Neolithic date (4000-2350 BC). The lithic is sub-ovate in profile and bi-concave in section. The dorsal surface retains a minor amount of cortex along the proximal edge and has partial, parallel flaking. All edges contain fine semi-abrupt retouch. The ventral surface retains cortex along its distal end and has two predominant negative scars. The lithic retains some cortex and is therefore a secondary flake.The flint is dark grey in colour, the cortex is a light blueish grey in colour.
