The artefact is triangular in plan, the topside is very narrow and the base is pointed. On the ventral the of the bulb of percussion at the top is missing and there is only slight evidence for the emanating ripples. One arrise running down the centre of the dorsal, the left side still has the cortex on the surface, both edges have been retouched.
Light blue patina with very frequent mottling of white. The cortex is a light bluish grey with creamy speckles.
There is a similar example excavated at Hazeton North (Saville, 1990, 160, 162). | 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 | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
