Description: | Flint with cortex spots scraper. Thick oval flake with broad and narrow flakes trimmed from the dorsal side and with a gently convex ventral surface. A butt has been fashioned with short scalar retouch executed from the dorsal aspect; other retouch is angled and scalar. Damage on the ventral surface is fortuitous chipping. A creamy patina overall suggests the object has endured a long period of exposure to a calcareous environment. Suggested date: Early Bronze Age, 2350-1600 BC.Length: 49.7mm, Width: 50.3mm, Thickness: 18.6mm, Weight: 53.59gms
