Description: | 8 cores
Mesolithic - Neolithic
Sizes range from 41mm long, 28mm wide, 19mm thick to mm by 22mm by 20mm by 10mm.
The objects are sub-cylindrical with a sub-oval section. There are long thin linear flaking scars that run down the length of the artefacts over most if not all of the surfaces.
One has an off white/light grey patina, one has a dark grey/blue patina the others have a light grey/blue patina. Six has the remains of the creamy colour cortex on its surface.
Because of the long flaking scars it is most likely that they all date to the Late Mesolithic.
These are part of a large assemblage of 511 flints. See GLO-BCDA95 for further information on the rest of the assemblage.
