Flint 'tortoise' core, relatively large and thin. Dark brown/black flint, slightly rolled, with some cortex on one face. A core is a flint from which flakes have been removed. 'Tortoise' cores may be implements as well as cores, and they occur in Late Neolithic contexts with Grooved Ware, which is a kind of crude pottery with grooved decoration which is found mostly in ritual, not domestic, contexts (e.g. at henges).
