SCRAPER (TOOL)

Unique ID: NARC-D95B43

Object type certainty: Certain
Workflow status: Awaiting validation

A complete flint Disk Scraper of Neolithic date (3450-2100 BC). The object is sub-ovate in plan and concaveo-convex in section. The dorsal surface contains two predominant negative scars. The proximal and proximal edge has been blunted. The distal, left and right hand edges have semi-abrupt retouch. The ventral surface is concave with three predominant negative scars, two of which are hinged flake removals along the left hand side.

The lithic retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake.
The flint is cream in colour with light grey inclusions throughout.

Length: 54.60mm, Width: 36.88mm, Thickness: 10.96mm, Weight: 26.3g.
