Toffee brown flint debitage. A thick sub-rhomboid flake with a prominently bulbar ventral surface, and with broad and frequently parallel flakes removed from its dorsal surface by hard hammer strike. Angled scalar retouch may follow one long edge; it is uncertain whether crushing along this edge represents utilisation of a simple tool or adventitious edge-on impacts after its deposition. Suggested date: Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC. Length: 37.9mm, Width: 23mm, Thickness: 9.4mm, Weight: 7.49gms
