Title
COMBINATION TOOL
Description
English:

Neolithic flint combination tool.

Light bluish-grey opaque patina,but the retouched areas are mid-grey, indicating this blade was re-used in a later period to create a side-scraper and notch. The original blade is probably Mesolithic. The retouch along the right edge is inverse, semi-abrupt, sub-parallel and short. The notch on the right edge near the distal is struck on the dorsal face. Dorsal scars indicate unidirectional blade technology.
