Description
English: Flint microburin, oblong in plan and rod shaped in profile. On the dorsal side the right side of the distal tip has been snapped. The right and left margins are finely retouched. The ventral side has fracture damage on the lower end. It appears to have very sharp edges.

The flint is pale cream grey in colour.

Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 119, Fig. 5.103, No. 66 which is dated to the Mesolithic period.
