Description: | A small scraper of probable late Neolithic to Beaker period date. The tool is sub-oval and has a convex upper edge and flat horizontal edge at the bottom. It is semi-circular in section and has been re-touched around its upper edge by the removal of two or three rows of pressure flaked chips. A small portion of the cortex remains and the flint is a light yellowish brown colour. The reverse is unworked and there is a bulb of percussion and rippling at the bottom. It measures 24.8mm high by 20.1mm wide and 7.3mm thick. It weighs 4.43g. | 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 | Temporal: | -2500
