A complete knapped lithic implement of Neolithic date, circa 4000 - 2300 BC. The implement is a scraper, designed to be held between the thumb and forefinger, formed from a tertiary flake which is D-shaped in plan and section. The ventral surface is mostly smooth with no visible scars. The dorsal surface displays long, semi-abrupt, sub-parallel retouch along the curved edges. The flint is a light grey colour with lighter white inclusions. The implement is 23.9mm long, 19.8mm wide, 5.6mm thick and weighs 3.3g. Scrapers are fairly ubiquitous throughout prehistory and are generally les…
