Tertiary hard hammer, sub-triangular struck flake, of brown/orange patinated flint, one long side of the flake is the “step” of hinged flake scar, this has made a long lip along this edge, the opposing long edge has fine retouch or use wear along its edge, the platform has been neatly trimmed from the dorsal face to straighten it. Possibly a boring tool or a drill that may have been intended to be hafted.  Neolithic, possibly early, 4,000 to 3,000 BC.
