Description: | The distal end of a Prehistoric flint bladelet. The flint has a thick, white, opaque patina. The break is much darker and is just beginning to acquire a patina. The edges of the bladelet have been retouched in modern times as the patina on the edges is the same as on the break. There is a small amount of cortex present on the distal tip. There a rust spots present on the flint that suggest it originated in the Chilterns.
