Upper Palaeolithic flint scraper
A short blade end-scraper has had its proximal end trimmed. The scraping end is the distal and the retouch is neat and scalar, radiating out from a central point on the dorsal surface and confined to the very end of the tool. The trimming at the proximal end is such that the tool has been shortened in length at some time in the past.
