Description: | Retouched blade. The blade has parallel edges and a rounded proximal end; there is retouch all around these edges on the dorsal surface. The tool was probably used as a knife as the edges are slightly serrated. The distal end of the tool widens out and comes to a sharp point at the top of the right dorsal edge and this may have also been functional ?? this end deceptively looks like the butt of the blade but the bulb of percussion is visible on the ventral surface at the rounded end. The blade weighs 2.45g and measures 36.6mm in length, 13.35mm in width and 7.05mm in thickness. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Marshall, Anna - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
