Title
Microburin
Description
English: Flint microburin, almost ovoid in plan and triangular in section. It appears to be a notched flake. On the dorsal side the distal tip and the proximal ends have snapped edges. The left margin and the upper right margin have serrated edges. Mid way of the right margin is a worked notch. On the ventral side the right margin is retouched and the left margin has a worked notch.

The flint is translucent orange in colour.

Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 114, Fig. 5.98, No. L.44 which is dated to the Mesolithic period.
