Prehistoric flint scraper
Thinned scraper on a reworked, older patinated flint implement. The newer retouch is marginal, yet with the older retouch being so invasive the piece has a knife-like appearance to it. The flake on whcih the implement is made is struck from a plain platform and the retouch is trasverse to this.
