Description: | A flint core of probable late Neolithic date.
The core is large and of rough appearance. The flint itself, which is mottled grey in colour, contains natural flaws and is generally of poor quality. At the top is a platform and the scars extending downwards from here suggest that it was used for the manufacture of short, broad flakes.
The object measures 60.7mm high, 52mm wide and weighs 197.73g. | Subjects: | Flint core | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Watters, Julian - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
