Description: | Mesolithic to early Neolithic flint probable borer or awl. 30mm long, 26mm wide and 9mm thick with a weight of 6.93grams.Three long thin flakes have been removed from the sides to create a rough lozenge shape with a rounded point at each end. Further retouch is limited. The distal tip has snapped off, possibly due to later damage, and may have been longer originally to function as a borer. The dorsal face is concave. Secondary flake - cortex remains on the ventral face.
