Description: | Phil Watson (Principal Curator, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery) identified the object as a Mesolithic flake dating to -8300 to -3500. The blade has been knapped from an opaque mid grey coloured flint.
The flake has multiple vertical scars on the dorsal surface. The lower edge is missing, relatively recently as the break has a different surface texture to the remaining flake. The flake measures 21.08mm long and 20.65mm wide. It weighs 2.49g. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Bolton, Angie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
