Early Bronze Age flint scraper
Unpatinated grey flint scraper. The flake is struck from a plain platform. The scraping edge is slightly splayed outwards. The retouch runs around the edge opposite the bulb of percussion and is steep on one side becoming shallow at the other. The retouch is fairly invasive and is scalar.
