Title
Late prehistoric flint implement
Description
English: Late Prehistoric/Lower Paleolithic Retouched (reutilised) flake. Secondary flake, in the form of a scalene triangle, in brown stained flint with two patches of thick weathered and brown stained cortex on the dorsal face. The left lateral edge has fine steep retouch along its distal edge while the right edge has a shallow, ventrally retouched, notch on its proximal edge together with a larger scalar removal. All these modifications are recent, post-staining, suggesting reuse of an old flake. Probably a reused Palaeolithic flake.
