Description: | A collection of twenty-nine knapped flint waste flakes or debitage, probably dating to the Neolithic period between 4000 - 2200 BC (collective weight: 117.57g).None of these flakes/ debitage appear to have a bulb of percussion or radial scars visible, although ripples or 'lunettes' are evident on most pieces indicating the force of the striking or knapping and some have multiple arrises. Additionally, there is little evidence of finer knapping along the surfaces of the flakes in order to produce a sharper working edge.
