A complete knapped lithic implement of Bronze Age date, circa 2350 - 800 BC. The implement is a notched scraper formed from a secondary flake which is sub-trapezoidal in plan and rectangular in section. The ventral surface is smooth retaining its chalky white cortex. The dorsal surface is irregular with a large irregular notch at the proximal end. Shallow semi-invasive scaled retouch is present along the inner edge of the notch and around one projecting edge suggesting this may have functioned as a scraper proper. The flint is a dark blackish-grey colour with lighter inclusions. Th…
