Pale buff grey flint debitage. Bladelet with long parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a slightly concave ventral surface. Dense misty patina over all struck surfaces is disrupted by very short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect following one long edge. This appears to have been carried out after patination and is later in date. Suggested date: Late Mesolithic, 7000-4000 BC.
