Title
Bronze Age flint scraper
Description
English: A scraper fabricated on a natural flake of mottled pale brown and grey flint. There is extensive, cream-coloured cortex remaining on one face. A small length of one edge of the flake has been worked using short, sub-parallel, semi-abrupt retouch to form a scraping edge. The rest of the flake is unworked.This crude type of tool, utilising a natural flake, is typical of flint working during later Prehistory.
