Object type: FLAKE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flake with notch on left hand edge, which has been worked from the ventral side along the notch. It is a small flake and rather misshapen. Possibly a small graver. There is a point on the same side as the notch but it is not robust enough to act as a piercer or awl. There is evidence of trimming along the right hand edge. The best description would be a notched flake.
The flint is a medium grey colour with some speckles of lighter grey and was likely derived from a local beach pebble.

Description by Nicholas Thomas:
This is a flake with retouched notch and use wear.
The notch is at the distal end of the dorsal right margin, worked from the ventral face. The dorsal left margin shows use wear. The distal end is battered.
The ventral face shows another notch and retouch along the left margin, worked from the dorsal face.
The flint is mottled brown in colour. It is probably derived from a local beach pebble but this is unclear with only tertiary cortex.
