Title
Mesolithic microburin
Description
English: Small Mesolithic tertiary piece with areas of retouch. It is triangular, widening towards the distal end where it ends in a snap. It has a small bulb of percussion on the ventral face. It has short, semi-abrupt scalar retouch down the left edge on the ventral face including one notch. On the distal end there is abrupt short scalar retouch across half the end, presumably a notch that was then snapped. Medium grey-brown flint with paler mottling. It is 25.4mm long, 12.3mm wide and 3.0mm thick; it weighs 0.83 grams.
