Description: | Waste flake, probably of late Mesolithic or early Neolithic date due to the quantity of blades and blade cores present at the same find spot. The flake has a striking platform and a bulb of percussion. Previous flakes have been removed from the dorsal surface and there are also some flaking scars, however 10% of the dorsal surface is covered in cream cortex. The mid-grey flint is unpatinated and has some post-depositional damage due to agricultural activity (chipped edges). The dimensions are 36.42mm long, 29.29mm wide, 5.80mm thick and weighs 4.87 grams. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McLean, Laura - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
