Description: | A re-touched flint flake of probable early Neolithic date. The flake has a small portion of the core platform and a strong bulb of percussion and rippling on the reverse. It is irregular in shape and its upper surface retains half of the original cortex. The other side has been finely re-touched on both the back and front to produce a cutting edge. The flint is dark greyish-brown in colour. The implement measures 31.4mm long by 21.4mm wide and 8mm thick. It weighs 5.33g. | Subjects: | Flint flake Re-touched | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Watters, Julian - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
