English: One secondary and one tertiary flint waste flakes. Both are of opaque mid grey to beige flint with a low-gloss patina.

A] The striking platform and bulb of percussion are missing. There is a hinge fracture at the distal end on the ventral face. It retains a small area of abraded cortex at the distal end on the dorsal face. A fault in the flint has caused the ventral face to fracture irregularly. There is some post-depositional edge damage.
