Description: | Dark grey flint with cortex and dense white patina interrupted by working to form a nosed or end scraper. A thick and lumpish flake bears short abrupt retouch at one end along a curving edge, and is battered along both its long edges. The latter may be adventitious on the shorter side but appears the result of deliberate and recurrent activity on the other. Other chip[s on the dorsal surface are the result of recent adventitious impacts. Suggested date: Bronze Age, 2350-800 BC.Length: 85.6mm, Width: 35mm, Thickness: 20.4mm, Thickness: 61.50gms.
