Mesolithic stone decorated pebble
A slightly micaceous silty sandstone elongated pebble broken and eroded. At least 14 lines were incised on one face before breakage; erosion has made some very faint. No motif is discernable although the orientation of the lines falls into a restricted range with all lying within 30 degrees either way of the longer axis of the pebble, all but one lies within 20 degrees.
