Description: | A small secondary flint flake, which has been snapped. There is a small striking platform at the proximal end and a clear bulb of percussion on the ventral surface. Waves radiate from here towards the distal end. Also at the proximal end is a small piece of nodule cortex. The mid-brown mottled flint has a mid-gloss patina. At the point where the flake has been snapped, its profile is triangular, with two even flaking scars on the dorsal side. The flake may be a by-product of blade manufacture. | 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
