Description: | A large worked waste flint flake, which is probably Neolithic in date.
The bulb of percussion and striking platform both survive, but have been reworked. 5% of the dorsal surface is still coated with the natural cortex. It has been formed from a light grey flint, with patches of lighter material within the flint matrix. There is some iron staining on the surface of the flint. There is some steep retouch along one part of one edge, forming a rounded cutting edge. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
