Description: | A flint tool fabricated from a secondary, struck blade of dark brown flint. There is a small bulb of percussion at the proximal end of the blade, with ripples of percussion across the ventral face. The dorsal face has two small areas of cortex remaining and has scars where three previous blades have been removed. The blade has been worked along both long edges and around the the distal end using short, sub-parallel, semi-abrupt retouch to create scraping edges. This tool probably dates to the Neolithic period.
