Description: | Phil Watson (Principal Curator, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery) identified the object being a possible Neolithic pointed tool dating to -3500 to -2100. The flake has been knapped from a light mottled grey coloured flint.
The tool is a sub-rectangular in plan with the lower edge tapering to form a blunt point. The tool is a sub-triangle in section. The edges are slightly abraded, rather than knapped. It measures 35.84mm long and 15.11mm wide. It weighs 3.76g. | Subjects: | Point | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Bolton, Angie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
