Title
Debitage: Mesolithic microburin
Description
English: A Mesolithic microburin fabricated on a tertiary flake of dark and pale brown, translucent, flint, the waste result of snapping off a microlith point. There are ripples of percussion across both faces but no bulb of percussion. It is sub-rectangular in plan with a distinct, sharp point at one end. This point has been created using short, scaled, semi-abrupt retouch, working from both sides of the blade.
