Description: | This is a lump of flint with evidence of knapping and possibly fire cracked. It is probably of Neolithic origin. There is a clear platform and some conchoidal scars on the possible ventral surface. The possibly dorsal side has negative scars.
The material is now a pale grey-brown with extensive crazing throughout the piece. This was found in the vicinity of 4 other recorded lithic tools.
As to its original purpose, debate rages over whether this was intended to be a scraper or is a core. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Trevaskus, Rod | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
