A complete flint Scraper of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The lithic is sub-triangular in plan and concavo-convex in section. The dorsal surface has a minor amount of retained cortex along the proximal edge. The left and right hand edges have fine, semi-abrupt retouch. The distal end tapers to a slight point and the proximal end has been abruptly blunted. The ventral surface is slightly concave and has shallow ripples of percussion emanating from a small bulb of percussion situated at the proximal end. The flake retains a minor amount of cortex and is therefore a secondary flake. …

A complete flint Scraper of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The lithic is sub-rectangular in plan and concavo-convex in section. The dorsal surface has three predominant negative scars, and short, scaled flaking along the proximal edge. The left and right hand edges have semi-abrupt retouch. The proximal and distal ends have been abruptly blunted. The ventral surface is slightly concave due to a single large negative scar situated above a retained bulb of percussion along the proximal end. The flake retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake. The flint is grey in colour wi…
