Title
awl
Description
English: Flake with edge trimmed towards the point which is a natural feature. Some cortex remains on the dorsal side which acts as backing. The ventral side has a flat back.

The flint is dark grey in colour and has no inclusions and was likely derived from a local beach pebble.

Butler (2005) illustrates a similar example on page 186, Fig 76 No.1 which is dated to the later Neolithic.
