Title
Lithic implement; finely worked concavity for grip.
Description
English: A nodule of black flint. The negative bulb of percussion is from damage. The flake terminates in a broad hinge which interacts with an existing fracture plane on the other side. This older natural surface has begun to develop cream patination. The hinge fracture is slightly abraded towards the tip. A large flake has been taken off through the cortex and the scalloped edge has been created by invasive damage.
