SiteComments: 

Scattered surface occurrences of Late Stone Age stone tools and flakes were identified in a few areas across the prospecting area, but no habitation or tool processing areas were identified. Find spots are labelled as low-density scatters if they contain less than five tools or flakes per square metre – in this case less than 5 tools/flakes per 20m2 . Such scatters also do not necessarily contain complete diagnostic or formal tools. The material used for the artefacts is fine-grained silicates such as agates, jasper and chert.
