Scraper made from a piece of opaque grey flint now with traces of milky patination, possible light gloss overall. Steep (90 degre) semi-circular retouch around end and partly up one side, sub-parallel flaking with some hinge fractures. Evidence of platform preparation/retouch at proximal end.. Ventral face showing the use of a soft hammer. Traces of cortex on one side, the other bears signs of fine retouch or use.The form of this scraper suggests a Late Upper Palaeolitic date, resembling both a 'carinated scraper' ' (Butler, 2005, Fig. 27, 6-7).
