Description: | A partly-cortical flint flake, with cortex at the distal end and mesial ridge of the dorsal face. On the right side is the negative scar off a flake lost in a previous strike. The flake has been retouched on the left side and also on the distal and left edges of the ventral face. Retouch is short and regular. The bulb of percussion on the ventral surface is pronounced; the flake was caused by a hard hammer strike. Utilised as a cutting tool. Neolithic to Early Bronze Age in date. | 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: | -4500
