Description: | Retouched flint flake of early Neolithic date. Measures 49mm long by up to 19.4mm wide and 6.3mm thick. The worked surface has been formed by the removal of four longitdinal flakes. There is retouching to the left hand side (as you look at it), which has created a serrated blade, whilst a further thin longitudinal flake has been removed from the right hand side to form a blunt scraping surface. There is an area of unworked weathered flint surface at the bottom of the flake. The reverse is plain apart from a small bulb of percussion at the top and shallow rippling across the surface. Weight = 8.24g. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Julian Watters | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
