Description: | 3 small bladelet flakes. All are damaged, resulting in the removal of the bulb of percussion on two and distal edge damage on all. The remaining bulb of percussion is extremely shallow, indicating a soft hammer strike. All have elongate flaking scars on the dorsal surface. The flint ranges from mid grey with mid-gloss patina to off-white with low-gloss patina. These flakes probably derive from bladelet production and as such could date from the Mesolithic to early Neolithic. The dimensions in the fields below represent a sample, the weight is the total for all three. | 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: | Ciorstaidh Hayward Trevarthen | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
